Taormina is nestled in an imposing backdrop, with picturesque views, ancient architectural wonders, small alleys and fragrant gardens. In the romantic coastal town, all the beauties of the island meet in an almost lavish way. On a rocky plateau of Monte Tauro and somewhat away from the centre of Taormina sits the ancient theatre from the 3rd century BC. On warm summer evenings concerts, films and cultural events are performed on this beautiful stage. Unique, when under one the sea of lights of the city sparkles and over one the stars shine. An opening about ten metres wide gives a view of Etna and the bay of Giardini-Naxos.
