Photographer’s Note

A local sightseeing oddity here is Villa Comunale, sometimes called Parco Duca di Cesarò, Via Bagnoli Croce, off Corso Umberto I. One of the most beautiful little parks in all of Sicily, the gardens were the creation of Lady Florence Trevelyan in the late 19th century. This Scottish lady was "invited" to leave Britain after a well-publicized romance with the future king, Edward VII, son of Victoria. She built various amusements in the gardens, including a fanciful stone-and-brick pavilion that might have been conceived as a teahouse. The gardens are open daily 8:30am to 7pm (6pm in winter); admission is free.

Another flower-filled garden in Taormina is the Giardino Púbblico (Public Garden), Via Bagnoli Croce. It overlooks the sea, making it a choice spot for views. You can order drinks at a bar in the park. The garden is open from dawn until dusk.

Of this park that I speak, is wonderful views of Taormina and all the coast, I recommend its visit, but they habian to me this that a Spanish did, but after looking for and looking for information of this park is the unique thing that I knew is the previous thing, the truth that those houses that see of brick say that they are for the birds, associate another photo of the park of another one of the houses, is a park with tropical trees and many sources, precious without a doubt…

I hope you like it.
