Park Hotel Capomulini is at a only two kilometres from the renowned Spa thanks to the sulphurous water gushed by springs south of the town, where are the Terme of S. Venera, documented since Antiquity.
Acireale The city preserves a number of beautiful Baroque buildings erected following the 1693's earthquake ravaging many cities in the Eastern Sicily. The heart of the town is occupied by Piazza del Duomo, that is crossed by the city thoroughfare Corso Umberto I. The latter, becoming Corso Vittorio Emanuele to the South, is bordered by elegant buildings, shops, boutiques and ice-cream parlours that do honour to the fame of the local ice-cream. The city is also famous for its Carnival, with processions of allegorical floats, some of which bedecked with flowers, and masked revellers streaming through the main streets.
Acitrezza Acitrezza, totalling some 5,000 inhabitants, is a small fishing village dominated on the seaward side by the Rocks of the Cyclops, a treacherous pointed mass of black lava rising up from the crystal-like waters. The Odyssey tells that these were hurled by Polyphemus against Ulysses who had blinded him by thrusting a flaming stake into his only eye; the hero then escaped with his companions by clinging to the bellies of rams belonging to the Cyclops. Beside the rocks sits the island of Lachea, now a biology research station run by the University of Catania. Acitrezza was chosen by the writer Giovanni Verga to set his celebrated novel I Malavoglia. The little harbour bathed in sunshine and dotted with multi-colored boats, seems inhabited by the ghosts of his fictitious characters; so easy to imagine Maruzza and the other members of the Malavoglia family, waiting here anxiously on the shore, ceaselessly searching the horizon, alas in vain, for the Provvidenza with his cargo of lupines. Here Luchino Visconti shoots his film La Terra Trema (The Earth Trembles) that he draws from Verga's novel I Malavoglia. |
