Palermo is lived by walking. From your front door, in a few minutes, you're inside a maze of baroque alleys, hidden courtyards and Arab-Norman churches. You don't need a map: just let yourself be carried along.
The baroque of the Quattro Canti, the fountain of Piazza Pretoria, the grandeur of the Teatro Massimo — the largest opera house in Italy, ten minutes from home. Every corner is a stage set.
The Cathedral, the Palatine Chapel and the Norman Palace tell of a city that was Arab, Norman, Swabian. The golden mosaics of the Palatine Chapel are a breathtaking UNESCO heritage.
The local's tip
Set off early in the morning, when the centre still belongs to the locals. Stop for a coffee at the bar and move on: the alleys will take you where you need to be.
Teatro Massimo and the old town about 10 minutes on foot.
Palermo's old town is best explored on foot: Teatro Massimo, Quattro Canti, Piazza Pretoria, the Cathedral, the Palatine Chapel and the Norman Palace, a UNESCO heritage. Staying near Via Libertà with Palermo Holiday House, you have everything 10-15 minutes away on foot: the ideal base for a cultural city break in Palermo.
