Taormina's main attractions include the 2000-year-old theater, and a good viewing spot with the sea behind and the volcano in front. There is an English guide, but you need to deposit your passport, which you can get back after the tour.

Taormina, in the past, many writers, poets, and stars would come here for vacation. Many beautiful legends and scenery about Taormina were left in novels. There are many orange trees here, the sun is shining, and there must be a cathedral in Piazza 9 April.

I really feel so emotional. I went to Sicily in early January 2020 and visited Taormina for 3 days and 2 nights. Now everything has been completely stopped. Isola Bella is a heart-shaped island. You can walk to see it from a distance, but you can't go to the island to play. The entire island is closed and you have to abide by the rules.

Taormina is a small town that can be visited in almost a day. There is a Centaur fountain in front of the church. The fountain here is different from the one in Rome. It has a unique southern feature. It also presents different beauty from each angle.
