Sicily, Catania
This will not be just a simple tour of Catania but a journey of the senses, flavors and smells in the city par excellence of taste, an unforgettable experience that combines the folklore of historical markets (in particular of the historical fish market called “A Piscaria ”) To the uniqueness of Catania’s street food.
On this route you will have the opportunity to admire the most important monuments of the historic center. We will cross suggestive alleys and squares full of stories and anecdotes.
We will start our journey from Piazza Duomo, which houses the Cathedral of Catania and “u Liotru” the symbol of the city. From here we will continue towards the historic fish market “a piscaria”, with an Arab flavor, leaving behind the famous Amenano fountain , called “the water or linzolu”, dear to the people of Catania, made of Carrara marble and which produces a cascade of water that overflows with such lightness as to seem like a sheet. The local market in Piscaria is certainly one of the obligatory destinations for tourists who visit Catania and that I will make you visit from top to bottom.you will appreciate the imprint of an Arab bazaar or the veracity of Sicilian habits, such as that of sellers who at dawn mount the fish stalls, turning among the stalls you can listen to the “vuciata” of individual fishermen, which is nothing more than a chant with which each seller praises his own merchandise.
