Caltabellotta — Rocca & Belvedere

Sicily

Caltabellotta's houses cling to the slopes of a jagged limestone outcrop with three distinct summits, one topped by a ruined Norman castle. On the clearest days, the climb to the highest point is said to give a view of both the Tyrrhenian and Mediterranean coasts of Sicily at once.
