Sciacca, Sicily, Italy.
Posted by Enrico Lo Bianco on Thursday, June 19, 2008
Sciacca Terme is an ancient and peaceful town with its thermal baths and is one of the oldest towns in Sicily. Set on the edge of the Mediterranean Sea, Sciacca is a fishing port which has remained untouched by mass tourism. The real heart of the town centre is steeped in history and ancient architecture of Moorish, and baroque style, picturesque alleyways and courtyards. A labyrinth of houses and streets, some of which can be narrow enough to fit only a single person at a time. Artistic works of notable interest especially of the medieval and baroque peiods are conserved here. Sciacca's fame in modern times comes from her renowned hydromineral resources and to the famous Monte San Calogero natural vapour and sweat grottoes. In addition to the enchanting landscapes, the rugged beauty of an indented coastline, to the sandy beach and to the luminosity of sea Sciacca has also a gentle healthy cliamte which makes it an ideal place for health cures, for holidays and for tourism.
