Description
Year after year, the Ancient Theater of Taormina attracts numerous tourists. The moment you lay eyes on it, you will understand the reasons behind its popularity. Situated among the Sicilian hills, this ancient structure from Greece and Rome has been remarkably maintained.
You are welcome to explore these impressive ancient remains. The curved form of the theater is in line with Hellenic architectural style, while the brickwork indicates that the Romans constructed on top of the preexisting building. Prepare to immerse yourself in two distinct layers of ancient civilization!
Even after more than 2,000 years since its establishment, this magnificent place continues to host opera and theater shows. Sir Elton John has performed here as well. (Indeed, he did perform I'm Still Standing – just in case you were curious.)
From the theater, you can enjoy stunning panoramas of the Calabrian coastline and the Ionian shores of Sicily. Mount Etna is visible on clear days, offering a sight that has remained unchanged for more than 2,300 years.
