Villa Comunale, The Taormina public garden, quite and natural place, Sicily ITALY

Partly in ruins, theyblended lovely with the garden. There is quite a story about the Scottish lady Florence Trevelyan Cacciola.

Florence, was “invited” to leave England following a romantic liaison with the future Edward VII.
She arrived in Taormina in 1889 and married a local professor and set about building these gardens. She planted them with Mediterranean plants and had ornamental pavilions made of bricks and Arabesque designs. Florence was a keen ornithologist and used the towers to study Bird’s in the garden.

Walking along the pathway to the ocean side of the villa is a must, as the views are wonderful of the ships anchored in the Bay, the beach and the other large Villa’s built on the edge of the hill

The garden is open…. Daily 9 am-sunset
Entrance is Free
