Palermo is the capital of the gorgeous island of Sicily; the
ball being kicked by the boot of Italy, as it were.
It is the cradle of ancient civilisations and has always been
a crossroads of cultures between East and West: through history

and religion, and today it continues to enchant a yearly influx
of visitors who come to savour the warm Mediterranean climate
and take in the island’s fascinating history, culture and
sumptuous cuisine. Or maybe they've heard that Sicilians have
one of the longest life expectancies and are simply hoping to
be let in on the secret...
