Attraction in Palermo

Beaches, temples, waterfalls, viewpoints and markets — the things worth building days around. Nothing here is booked on this page: each one says what it is and how long people spend there, then points at the stays and tours in the same area.

Teatro Massimo Vittorio Emanuele

The largest opera house in Italy, closed for twenty-three years and reopened in 1997, with guided tours by day when nothing is being staged. The steps outside are where the last scene of The Godfather Part III was filmed, which is why people photograph them.
