Catania is the second biggest town of Sicily. Located on the south side of the Etna, its history is related to the activity of the volcano. What makes unique this town is the black lava stone used for the construction of streets and edifices. Injured by eruptions and destroyed by heart quakes, it's been totally rebuilt after 1693 in a magnificent baroque style. Nonetheless the town still keep some interesting roman ruins dodged from lava flows. Citizens are welcoming and cheerful. Because of volcano's strong energy influence, people are always busy, that's why this town almost never sleep. A walk in the city center is a dip in a kaleidoscope of colors, flavors, aromas. Markets are always crowded and rich of typical products, expressing the variety of cooking traditions. Street food is a cult and it's impossible to left the town without try "Tavola Calda", specialty of this area. Catania has a volcanic flow and join this particular mood it's an experience not to be missed!
