Syracuse, Sicily, Italy

Syracuse sits nestled in the corner of the island of Sicily in the Ionian Sea. The birthplace of the celebrated mathematician and inventor Archimedes, the 2,700-year-old city played a key role in ancient times as a major power in the Mediterranean world. Once described by the Roman poet Cicero as “the greatest Greek city and the most beautiful of them all,” Syracuse is defined by its rich Greek and Roman history, culture, and architecture. The Archaeological Park Neapolis boasts the Roman Amphitheater, the Teatro Greco, and the Orecchio di Dionisio, a limestone cave that resembles the shape of a human ear. The Museo Archeologico Regionale Paolo Orsi displays terracotta artifacts, Roman portraits, and Old Testament scenes carved into white marble. Syracuse is your gateway to the UNESCO-awarded Baroque city of Noto and the Catacombs of San Giovanni.
