Chaotic and picturesque Palermo, capital of Sicily, set in the Conca d’Oro on which Santa Rosalia watches from the top of the Mount Pellegrino, is simply a seductive city.
Colonized for three millennia, today\u2019s Palermo is the mirror of history, languages, architecture, cuisine and habits result of a past that has refined and changed its connotations. Domination after domination. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The name itself reflects the multiculturalism of the city. The Greeks called it the Paleapolis<\/strong> area, namely “Old Town”. Later they called it P\u00e1normos<\/strong>, or \u201call port\u201d. The Arabs called it Bal’harm<\/strong>, the Normans changed its name to Belarmus<\/strong>. The influence of these names was then combined in today’s name: Palermo<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
