Ragusa, Sicily Pictures: Take a Virtual Tour of Ragusa

Wednesday April 23, 2008

ragusa sicily street scene The old town of Ragusa, called Ragusa Ibla, is picturesque, whether you're inside it walking along the narrow streets or driving along the road just outside.

For me, visiting Ragusa and the surrounding cities of Modica and Scicli was the surpise highlight of a recent trip to the south of Italy. Ragusa is a laid back city of great food, friendly people, and reflects the best of the Sicilian Baroque in its many churches as well as in the corbels which hold up Ragusa's balconies.

Take a look at our Ragusa Pictures to see what I mean.
