Hiking

The ancient Greek amphitheater is considered the pinnacle of historical sights in Taormina. Perched on a hill, it offers breathtaking panoramic views of the shimmering sea, the Bay of Naxos, and the towering Mount Etna. Built of brick in the 3rd century BC, it is one of the largest of its kind in Sicily. It is believed to have been expanded under the Romans, but Greek inscriptions can still be seen on the seats.
