PIAZZA ARMERINA, SICILY

The next stop in our Sicily tour was Piazza Armerina, which was just about 15 min drive away from Villa Romana del Casale. This event occurred on a nice weather of September 6, 2019, Day#7. Most travelers skipped this town after the Villa, but we stayed on for the night out of curiosity. Thank goodness we did as we had one of the most memorable moments in this visit. Although there were not a whole lot of tourist attractions to see here, we ventured on a surreal walk around the neighborhood. We climbed the narrow streets up to the charming medieval back alleys and found its beautiful cathedral, a Spanish castle, old buildings and some great views over the city. Friendly locals, esp. seniors, congregated in cafes or parks. Toward the evening, this place turned eerie and dark. Bags of garbage hanging on the wall and/or from a balcony waiting for routine pickup. The night was an absolute joy where we sat with the locals in watching a free street concert. Next stop - hopping small towns - Caltagirone, Vizzini, Monterosso Almo
