Capo San't Alessio


Actually, I wasn't in Taormina, but in Sant'Alessio Siculo, a small village by the sea.

The ancient castle of Capo Sant' Alessio : this castle was built by Arabs and conquered by the Normans. They say that Emperor Alex I of Bizance stayed there when he visited Sicily, as well as Emperor Charles V of Germany.
