Sicily (Italian: Sicilia) is under the jurisdiction of the Sicily Region of the Republic of Italy, with an area of 25,700 square kilometers and a coastline of 1,484 kilometers. It is the largest island in the Mediterranean with a population of about 5 million.
Sicily is located in southern Italy and in the middle of the Mediterranean. It is shaped like a triangle. The northeast end faces the Apennine Peninsula with the Strait of Messina 3 kilometers wide. The island has many hills and is located in a typical Mediterranean climate. The winter is warm and humid, while the summer is dry and hot. The coastal area, especially the southwestern part, is also affected by the climate of the African continent, so the summer is even hotter, with the highest temperature reaching 48℃ .
Sicily occupies an important position in the commercial trade routes of the Mediterranean, so it has been considered a place of strategic importance throughout history. It is vast and rich, with a warm climate and beautiful scenery, rich in citrus, lemon and olives. Because of its good natural environment for the development of agriculture and forestry, it was called the "Golden Basin" in history.
It is one of the "pearls" of southern Italy. Nature seems to have given all its miracles to this land: mountains, hills, and most importantly the incredible colors of the Mediterranean, crystal clear waters and beautiful sea floor. Here, many small islands on the Mediterranean Sea are scattered along the coast of Sicily, giving it a unique and dense natural landscape, breath and flavor, and it has never been polluted.
Although it is a famous travel destination, the name Sicily,
Whether it’s for the distant Easterners or the Europeans who are not far away, it means exotic and mysterious...
So many people want to go to Sicily, but in fact, compared with other famous tourist destinations, not many people come to this island every year;
Maybe it’s because we always choose to visit her in the off-season,
So in our eyes, Sicily is tranquil, comfortable, peaceful, and of course beautiful~ ~

What is Sicily like
It depends on which angle you will look at her
...
Raise eyes
You see the clouds blown by the wind
Picture of an ordinary residential building in the ancient city of Ragusa
Part of Palermo Cathedral
Valley of the Temple
Attentive
You find life everywhere
It's getting late, the clothes are put away, only colorful clothespins are left
Be careful with pictures, add humor to the city
When the wind blows
Olive leaves rustling
Are you still telling the story of Athena
Temple of Hera in the Valley of the Temples
Three thousand years later, the idol has fallen
In the rain, Jupiter and the small town of Agrigento lying down
Faith never dies
Palermo's old city is too old
Many tourists dare not enter
Those mottled window lattices that seem to be abandoned by history in the old time
How many stories are hidden behind
