Siracusa essential (1-2 days)
Visite turistiche
Main Siracusa church, alghouth only once you arrive in the Duomo square (from Via Cavour) you will understand my suggestion really :)
It is a unic case, in the Mediterranean area, of a greek temple ( V century b.C.) that, after 2500 year, it is still an active church.

I suggest to go there if you want to discover an huge underground cemetery.
You will walk surrounded by tombs caved in the rocks, there, during IV and V century a.C., the Christian were buried after funeral rite.

Locals call this also "Fontana delle papere" because you can see a lot of ducks strolling there. Indeed it is a fountain with combined sweet and salty water...but before going there ask us for the lovely legend of Aretusa and you will appreciate this place even more.
