Palermo highlights walking tour
Joined 2021
Start with a visit of Palermo’s Cathedral. It is a harmonious blend of Gothic, Moorish and Norman architecture, which mirrors the city’s rich history. See the Martorana church; its resplendent mosaics combine Islamic motifs and Christian iconography. The Islamic-influenced dome of St. John of the Hermits, a 12th-century Norman church, is built on the grounds of a mosque. A tour of a market reveals fresh-picked produce and fish straight from the morning’s catch.
