The scenery in Sicily is above phenomenal. This was taken from ENNA, the capital of the province of the same name and it overlooks Calascibetta. For sheer Baroque heaven, one must go to Noto and wander the streets of this walking friendly town known as ''Un giardino di pietra''
( a garden of stone).For a meal you won't soon forget at a price you will think is a mistake, find TRATTORIA del CARMINE in via Ducezio #1.
One of the finest places in all of Italy to buy ceramics is in CALTAGIRONE situated in the hills around Enna. easy to get to and a walking gem. Characteristically, the ceramics produced here are the signature yellow and blue and all hand made. Make sure you walk the 142 steps of La Scala bounded by shops on both sides.
I took my cousin to pranzo at a beautiful Agriturismo in Leonforte and found this shed while walking around between courses.
