|                          | Situated atop a verdant       hillside in full view of the blue Mediterranean and mighty Mt. Etna,       Taormina is one of the most strikingly beautiful sights in Italy. Tour the       Greek theater with its matchless panorama, wander among the exotic plants of       the botanical garden, stretch out on one of the lovely beaches or just bask       in the town's soft breezes and seductive charms. |        |
