Monastero dei Benedettini di San Nicolò l'Arena
Monastery
👍👍 One of our best experience in Catania was the (English) guided tour of the monastery (well, university). You can not really visit without the tour, specially during the summer when the University is closed. The tour costs 9 euros and lasts a out 1h20m.
If you go on Saturday (maybe Sunday as well, d...

Nettuno Park
Amusement park
😐 Historic place in Catania, but the possibility of getting hurt is very high.
Among the stalls there are always some kind employees.
In any case, the inflatable house with balls is highly discouraged. The metal posts are covered with a thin layer of foam that does not prevent you from getting hurt....

Butterfly House
Park
👍👍 Definitely something never seen or heard before. Equipped with a small picnic area but with the right measures. Children's play area and toilet. Surely the parking needs to be improved. Nearby there is the ticket office with the possibility of buying souvenirs.
The guided tour is very interesting,...

Santuario Di Santa Maria Di Valverde
Church
👍 Il monumento più importante di Valverde, di sicura origine medievale, per il quale arrivano molti pellegrini e che si erge nella piazza centrale del paese, è il Santuario di Maria Santissima di Valverde.
Valverde, con la sua posizione e vicinanza ai più grandi collegamenti viari, è facilmente raggiu...

Fontana dei Malavoglia
Fountain
👍 Recently restored and finally working after years of neglect! The fountain is very beautiful and evocative. One star less because it is located inside a large square used as a parking lot !! Too bad not to enhance it with plants, benches and above zero cars around

Porta Uzeda
Landmark
👍👍 Beautiful space to see in the main city Square near the Basilica, and if you pass through it you get in front of city Park. And behind that city park is one of the bus stations. It’s not overcrowded. There are a lot of pickpockets here. It’s also nice place to buy souvenirs but buy them early mornin...

Church of Saint Mary 'della Guardia'
Catholic church
👍👍 La chiesa si trova a piazza Santa Maria della guardia, nella zona di Ognina. Siamo proprio a due passi dalla chic piazza Europa e Corso Italia. È una chiesa in stile moderno, dotata di soffitti alti. È una chiesa luminosa e per questo motivo non dà mai l'idea di essere un luogo cupo. Il parroco deve...

Yes, because in its fascinating interior, its columns, the large arches, the various capitals placed at harmonious heights, are almost all in black lava stone. This entire artistic masterpiece was well worked and...

Church of Saint Mary 'di Gesù'
Catholic church
👍👍 This Church was built in 1442.
Following the earthquake of 1693, it was destroyed and then rebuilt in the following century with the current Romanesque style façade commissioned by Brother Gerolamo Palazzotto.
As for the style, we can say that it does not have a precise style, but is a mixture of st...
