This vibrant, history-rich city will not leave you indifferent. As Rick Steves said, it is a perfect starting point to further explore the intriguing charms of Sicily.
We feel we also have to mention the royal, Norman palace with Palatine Chapel, the mystic Capuchin Catacombs, and sandy Mondello Beach, which are all absolutely worth visiting. What are you looking forward to seeing the most? And if you've already experienced Palermo - what was your favourite moment in the city? Let us know in the comments below.
As the Normans called Palermo - it truly is "The kingdom in the sun".

They are NOT called Arancini but the real name is ARANCINE / ARANCINA. Arancina is Female! This is considered a big mistake here in Palermo. Arancini are a different Catania kind of balls of rice.
