The island of Ortigia is the beating heart of the whole city: just a square kilometer and yet an enchanting treasure chest of treasures and natural beauty ready to amaze you.
Temples, castles, ancient aristocratic residences and baroque churches determine the charm of the small island dedicated to Artemis. It is pleasant to get lost in its alleys, in search of rare atmospheres lost elsewhere and which are perceived even more alive than ever here.
Ortigia strikes its human dimension, its tranquility and in its small but inebriating market resides its soul. Between fruit and vegetable stalls, cheese shops, typical products and fish stalls, in perfect harmony, all the colors, flavors and scents of this enchanting land can be enjoyed in the evening in the typical local trattorias or in its refined restaurants.
From the Aretusa terrace, especially at sunset, the whole city is dominated: from the ruins of the Greek fortress of Eurialo, to Etna, stopping to gaze at the elegant Federician fortress of Castello Maniace, the southern tip of Ortigia that seems to caress the blue waves of the sea.
The undergrounds of Ortigia meander telling the secrets of its people and jealously guard other treasures: the "Jewish Bath" in the heart of medieval Giudecca, and the Hypogeum of Piazza Duomo, theater of the local chronicles of the Second World War.
The gaze is also lost in the wavy Plemmirio, today a protected marine area, an ideal destination for nature excursions by sea and land, and which is located close to the seaside areas of Syracuse, Arenella, Fontane Bianche, Ognina and Terrauzza.
A few kilometers from the city another magical place: the "Fonte Ciane", testimony of the love between the beautiful nymph and Anapo.
Here it is recommended to go up the river by boat, among unique specimens of Papyrus to the source.
Papyrus in Syracuse still retains its memory, not only in its small museum but above all in quality craftsmanship which, faithfully following the recipe of the ancient Egyptians, reproduces the beauties of the city aretusea in watercolors on original papyrus paper.
Syracuse is all this and much more: a continuous discovery, between warm and welcoming people.
