Naxos
& Taormina ... Sicily ...
ジャルディーニ・ナクソスとタオルミナ
シチリア島。地中海のほぼ中央に浮かぶ、地中海最大のこの島は、日本の四国とほぼ同じ大きさの島です。逆三角形をしたこのシチリア島は、最初にギリシア人が上陸しました。Twenty-seven
centuries ago, the first Greek settlers in Sicily came to Naxos. They brought
with them the fire, the land, and the gods of their homeland. Genius of beauty,
light of truth, and longing for liberty which were the essence of common civilisation
...Today Naxos and Taormina possesses a large Archeological area enclosing the
interesting ruins of the ancient cities. Few places bring together all the wonders
of Sicily quite like Naxos and Taormina. Cradle of Mediterranean civilisation
it is a tourist resort which offers some of the most up to date amenities in southern
Italy. Escursion are possible to Syracuse, Agrigento, Palermo, the Aeolian Islands,
Etna, the Pine forest of Linguaglossa (an enchanding sea-snow itinerary) or the
valley of the Alcantara river with his "Gorges".
