Palermo

Sicily’s vibrant capital — markets, palazzi and Mediterranean coast.

Overview

Palermo is Sicily’s capital and largest city, spread along the island’s north coast beneath Monte Pellegrino. Its Arab-Norman heritage is UNESCO-listed, and everyday life plays out across historic palazzi, baroque churches, and some of Europe’s liveliest street markets. It is a working port city with an international airport, a growing food and cultural scene, and neighbourhoods that range from the grand to the wonderfully lived-in.
