Palermo is like an onion. It is made of layers. For every layer you remove, there is another to peel back, said journalist Roberto Alajmo to describe the complexity of this city.

Surrender to the layers of Palermo, enjoy its history, culture, architecture and gastronomy. Let this coastal metropolis enchant you with its colours, smells and tastes, churches, monuments and works of art, with noisy working-class neighborhoods right beside opulent aristocratic buildings.

In this European capital of street food, be sure to try the street specialties with your hands, because that's how real Sicilians do it. Enjoy a long, soft pizza with onion sauce, Sicilian Caciocavallo cheese, breadcrumbs, oregano and Palermo Sfincione anchovies. When you get tired of walking, Mondello beach with fine sand and crystal clear sea awaits you not far from Palermo.
