Nationale Parken / Regionale Parken

 Al Alcantara Park  -  Parco Fluviale dell'Alcantara
About 50 km of fluvial environment with unique and unusual naturalistic aspects. Particular intense geological and geothermic events have determined the structure of the current basalts. It seems that in the prehistorical period a river ran over clayey sediments; then great volcanic eruptions canalized in the riverbed a fluid magma which sank in the most clayey places, forming the current basaltic colonnades. The apotheosis of these spectacular natural sculptures can be found in the quarters Larderia in the Town of Motta Camastra.
Blauw vierkantje - illu Bosco di ficuzza  -  Website on the Ficuzza wood.
It thoroughly describes the flora, the fauna, the natural reserve and all that is significant about this area a few kilometres away from Palermo.
 Etna Park -  Parco dell'Etna
Parco dell'Etna is beautiful not only for its eruptions and for its lava flows but also for the unique environment surrounding it, rich in sounds, perfumes, and colors. An enchanting landscape protected by a nature park you cannot miss the opportunity to visit if you are in Sicily. The Park extends from the peak of the volcano to the towns around it
 Madoni Park  -  Parco Naturale Regionale delle Madonie
The flora plays a leading role in the territory of the Park. This botanic paradise, together with its peaks reaching 1,979m of height, houses more than the half of the 2,600 Sicilian species and about 150 of the 200 endemic species. The most important one is Abies Nebrodensis, with 29 specimens. From several points, it is possible to admire wonderful landscapes like Etna, Nebrodi, and the Aeolian Islands, which offer an unforgettable and almost unreal view at dawn and at sunset.
 Nebrodi Park  -  Parco Naturale dei Nebrodi
Parco Naturale dei Nebrodi was established in 1993. It is made up of the most important and largest wood areas of Sicily (about 50,000 hectares). The best-known arboreal species are Fagus sylvatica (situated in the most southern area of diffusion), Quercus cerris, and Quercus suber. It is also possible to find Quercus ilex, Taxus baccata, Ilex aquifolium and significant lacustrine and rocky environments. Both the verterbrate and the invertebrate fauna are very rich.

Blauw vierkantje - illu Palermo  -  Gemeente Palermo
In the middle of the Mediterranean sea, Palermo - the cradle of ancient civilizations - has always been a crossroads of cultures between East and West: a strategic transit place, a privileged port of call for commerce and trade, a landing-place for people of various race, language, and religion.
Palermo is one of the few cities in the world that have preserved considerable traces of the culture of their successive conquerors: from the Romans to the Byzantines, from the Arabs to the Normans, from the Swabians to the French, from the Spaniards to the Austrians, they have all left unmistakable marks of their passing; and these are invaluable testimonies, since this convergence of different styles and shapes, from the North of Europe to Africa, from the Middle Ages to the Baroque period, has given birth to a variety of absolutely original artistic, architectural, and decorative creations.

Blauw vierkantje - illu Agrigento  -  Provincie
Blauw vierkantje - illu Caltanissetta
Caltanisetta's Territory, thanks to its strategic importance, its links with the sea to the south and with the inland to the north, also to its geographical and geological environment due to the develop of the cities, it was almost frequented by differents population in different ages. Residenced and transitated by Siculi and Sicani, Caltanissetta catched a great political importance during the Greek colonization; it knew long domination and periods of decline, but also periods of great economic and commercial flouriability, especially during the sulphur mines' "Golden Age".
This great heterogeneity of events left indelible signes on its territory: a vast variety of archeological sites, Castles and sighting towers of the middle age; Palaces and the marvelous Churches of the different communes, reflex of propitions and nobility; sulphur mines and gills, remained now as the sulphure industry of Sicily.

The town of Syracuse occupies an extremely beautiful position between the waters of the Great Port, the only natural harbour to be found along all the Sicilian coast, and the Iblei mountains. It was founded in the VIII century BC, by a group of Greek settlers from Corinth, led by Archia, although a number of remains discovered in the area of the Cathedral Square show that the zone was already occupied in the XIV century BC. The name Syracuse comes from the Greek word Sirako, meaning swamp; the present-day city has a population of 127,000, divided among the five residential areas of the ancient Pentapolis of Dionysius &endash; the Greek-named Akradina, Tike, Neapolis and Ortigia, and Santa Lucia, and, to the south, at Cassibile along the river of that name, two tiny hamlets, which the Greeks called Kakiparys and Belvedere, not far from the Eurialo Castle
Blauw vierkantje - illu Taormina
As soon as you arrive in Taormina, you will feel the magical, mythical atmosphere spread all around which has enchanted visitors from all over the world for years and years. Settled on a hill of the Monte Tauro, Taormina dominates two grand, sweeping bays below and on the southern side, the top of Mount Etna, the european highest active volcano, often capped with snow, offering to the visitors a breathtaking, dramatic and memorable view over almost one hundred miles of Mediterranean sea.
Taormina really seems to be born as a touristic resort since past times, when ancient people like the Sicels, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Saracens, Arabs, Normans and Spaniards chose it as their residential site thank to its favourable position, mild climate and magic atmosphere. Nowadays visitors can still find fine examples of Taormina's golden times : the splendid Greek Thetre, the Roman "Naumachiae", the 13th century Cathedral of Saint Nicolò, the 14th century Palazzo Corvaja, the 16th century Palace of the Dukes of Saint.Stefano, the public gardens, the "Badia Vecchia" (Ancient Abbey) and many others.
The resort was first publicised by a trio of german artists : in 1787 J.W.Goethe discovered the beauties of Sicily and, in particular, of Taormina. He wrote the world known novel "Italian Journey", in which he describes the beauties of this land and its people and pronounced Taormina a "patch of paradise". The german painter Otto Geleng rose intereset in parisan art galleries exibiting his paintings about this magical landscapes. His contemporary, the young prussian photographer Wilhelm von Gloeden settled down in 1880 and made Taormina famous to all conservative european cultural clubs with his artistic portraits of nude sheperd boys with the volcano Etna on the backstage.
Since then many important celebrities visited Taormina, electing it as their "escapade place " from chaotic city life. Patrik Brydone D.H. Lawrence, Truman Capote, Alexander Dumas, Anatole France, Andrè Gide, Paul Klee , Guy de Maupassant, Luigi Pirandello, John Steinbeck, Gustav Klimt, Elio Vittorini, Oscar Wilde, Richard Wagner, Johannes Brahms spent happy moments here. In more recent times movie, theatre and music celebrities such as Ingmar Bergmann, Francis Ford Coppola, Leonard Bergman, Marlene Dietrich, Greta Garbo , Federico Fellini, Cary Grant, Tyrone Power, Gregory Peck, Marcello Mastroianni, Elisabeth Taylor, Woody Allen have spent pleasant and memorable holidays in the Mediterranean pearl.

Messina is famous for the spectacular fishing of sworfish. A special boat is used called the "spadara". It holds a central tower-like structure in the center for sighting swordfish and an exterior deck from which the swordfish is harpooned. Fishing season is from April to August.
Many other varieties of fish can be found in the Strait including Tuna's and Moon fish and others. Another type of fishing is that of the "sciabola" or in Sicilian dialect "spatola", this fish can reach two meters in lenght and is a silver in color.

Geschiedenis Sicilië

 Geschiedenis van Sicilië
De originele inwoners van Sicilië, voor de Griekse kolonisatie waren de Elymianen, Sicani en Sicelen. Van deze stammen zijn de Sicelen waarschijnlijk het laatst op het eiland aangekomen. Sicilië werd later gekoloniseerd door Punische en Fenicische kolonisten uit Carthago en het oude Griekenland. Zie verder Wikipedia.

 Messina Regional Museum
The Messina Regional Museum preservers precious testimonies of the city's artistic production from over the centuries. Its collections include works both from the collections of the destroyed Museo Civico Peloritano, and from the religious and civic buildings destroyed by the catastrophic earthquake in 1908.
The exhibits are arranged according in chronological order from the 12th to the 18th centuries, over 12 rooms on the ground floor and 3 display areas on the 1st floor, and include important architectural fragments, mosaics, sculpture and examples of decorative arts.
