Tips from the community
Did we tell you how we’re super mega fans of the Sicilian cuisine? From my personal experience, I have to say that the Streaty Food Tour in Palermo is one of the best experiences for adventurous foodies visiting Sicily. This walking tour lasts for about 3 hours and explores Palermo’s local markets of Capo and Vucciria. Our guide Marco took us to the best places in these centuries-old markets to try local food delicacies such as arancini, sfincione, cazzilli fritters, pani ca’ meusa, and the almighty cannoli with ricotta cream.

ste.divita (Stefania Di Vita) If you are fascinating from obscure places surely come to Sicily where you can visit Catacombe dei Cappuccini in Palermo. There you can find 8000 mummies dining the walls, all dressed with their precious clothes. The mummies are positionated according to profession. You can find rooms for lawyer, doctors, clergy, women or babies.The oldest corps in the crypt is the body of a friar named Silvestro da Gubbio who died in 1599. But the most important curious fact is about a baby girl and her mummification process. The Baby girl was Rosalia Lombardo. She died in 1920 when she was only 2 years old and she was defined the Baby sleeping beauty because her state of the body was in perfect condition. The imbalsamication process would take 1 year more or less. First step was draining all the liquids from the body and treating it with a chemical cocktail of formalin, alcohol, glycerin, salicylic acid and zinc salts.
