Capital of Sicilian Baroque and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Noto is not a place to rush through — it’s a place to savor.Every palace, every church, every balcony tells a story carved in golden stone. Let yourself be guided by the warm Sicilian light, the slow rhythm of its alleyways, and the elegance woven into every detail.

THE BAROQUE CENTER: HARMONY AND WONDER

Cathedral of San Nicolò

Majestic, radiant, perfectly symmetrical.Set atop the scenic staircase of Corso Vittorio Emanuele, it's the vibrant heart of the city.Take a moment to admire it at sunset, when the stone glows gold and pink.

Palazzo Nicolaci di Villadorata

One of the most beautiful aristocratic residences in all of Sicily.Its balconies, carved with fantastical baroque figures, frame one of the most photogenic corners of the historic center.

Church of San Domenico

Designed by Rosario Gagliardi, this is one of the most refined examples of Sicilian religious baroque.Its interior is harmonious and intimate — a perfect place for a quiet pause, always welcome.

NATURE THAT EMBRACES THE CITY

Vendicari Nature Reserve

Just a few kilometers from the center, a pristine paradise.Wild beaches, trails through lagoons and Byzantine ruins, flamingos in flight.Ideal for those seeking a true immersion in sea and nature.

Calamosche Beach

Reachable by walking through Mediterranean scrub, this cove offers calm, crystal-clear waters — perfect for those who seek the hidden beauty in every journey.

Cavagrande del Cassibile

A natural canyon with freshwater pools and waterfalls.A hike through rock and green, best faced with sturdy shoes — and a thirst for wonder.

HISTORIC AND EVOCATIVE PLACES

Tina Di Lorenzo Theater

A 19th-century gem tucked among the city’s streets. If you can, step inside — the red velvet hall is small, elegant, and full of charm.

Via Nicolaci

Especially during spring, don’t miss the “Infiorata” — a floral celebration that transforms the street into a tapestry of color and scent.

TAVERNS, COURTYARDS & TERRACES

Don’t forget that Noto is also made to be savored — through its typical dishes, local wines, and warm evenings in softly lit piazzas.

Soak up the atmosphere in full — and don’t stop at just the monuments!
