Ancient Sicilian city with a superb view of the sea.

16 km from Noto, lie the remains of the ancient Sicilian city. Rapidly Hellenized, it prospered under the Romans and in the Middle Ages. The earthquake of 1693 was devastating, and all that remains are the ruins of the castle and the Royal Gate covered with sage and olive trees. The site is a bit disappointing and an effort of imagination is needed to imagine what this city was like. From the nearby convent of Santa Maria della Providenza, built by Sinatra in memory of the victims of the earthquake, there is a superb view of the sea.

La ville baroque de Noto est comme un musée en plein air. On s'y promène à travers le temps et chaque visite de monument est une surprise, tant la décoration provoque l'admiration. On arrive dans la rue principale (piétonne) par la porta Reale et ensuite c'est toute une série d'églises et de palais qui en mettent plein les yeux. Il suffit de lever la tête au plafond de certains édifices pour regarder des oeuvres admirables. Une ville à voir et à revoir.
