Noto

Area: Siracusa surroundings

Noto is the capital of the Baroque and its historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
It is a small baroque jewel perched on a plateau overlooking the Asinaro Valley, rich in citrus, almond and olive trees.
The city was rebuilt following the earthquake of 1693, which razed ancient Noto to the ground, following an elegant urban project that has made it today a surreal place for the harmony of its forms.
Noto is the garden of golden stone for its enchanting and aristocratic atmosphere with warm tones given by the honey-colored stone.
