Restyling for Villa Romana del Casale: tomorrow opening again

Tomorrow evening:

After a few years, after a partial reopening, the Villa Romana del Casale (in Piazza Armerina, near Enna) shows her new look offering her jewels under a new roof and a new display and lights!

The most famous and extented mosaics of the late Roman period, today Unesco's heritage, are one of the most visited sites in Sicily

In the future, new excavations in the area after the discovery of another large room of about 80 sq metres with interesting mosaics . Another villa, part of a group of luxury residences in the area?

This is Sicily..still something new coming from our great Past!

It works as a B&B at the moment with only two bedroom, but it's also possible to have lunch tasting olive oil and almonds and wathever what rigorously the family produce and cook for you! Tranquillity, harmony, genuinity.. this are the things coming to my mind when I was there The name Busulmona , which is the name of all that area,comes from the Arabic and means the land of sun.... an extraordinary view from the stone terrace on the Val di Noto, from Noto to Vendicari and Marzamemi... . for further information : www.busulmona.com
