Monreale is one of those places that must be visited if you ever come to visit Sicily. There is nothing quite as beautiful, complex and meaningful as the golden mosaics of its Cathedral. And what about its cloister? 228 twin medieval columns with carvings on the top. If you can take the time to appreciate the enchanting work of thousands of artists then you will be rewarded with the strange sensation of a mixture of admiration and ecstasy. Afterwards, from the town you can see Palermo from above – and it is breathtaking!
