Noto - The Gorgeous Golden Baroque Sicilian City!

Today we stroll the perfectly parallel streets of Noto! Famous for its radiant golden limestone and being the home of Sicilian Baroque architecture, as well as a UNESCO world heritage site.

Noto, Syracuse is one of the seven towns of the 'Val di Noto' which is a UNESCO world heritage site. It was completely destroyed in 1693 by a massive earthquake that affected the whole area. When it came to rebuilding it during the Sicilian Baroque period, there were three main architects and so a lot of buildings have a similar look as they were all centered around one main idea: all the streets were going to line up with the sun so when the sun shines onto the city, it lights up all the streets and reflects off of the yellow limestone, as evident in its beauty today.

About Us:
When we were in our early 20’s, chasing our own dreams of living in Europe, we met one night at a pub in Florence...11 months later, we were married! Having been together for 4 years now, we have lived & worked on 3 different continents & even on a cruise ship!

We moved back to Italy to live out one of our biggest dreams - to pull off the Ultimate Italian Road Trip, traveling to all 20 regions of Italy by the end of 2022! We will be showcasing the impressive diversity all 20 regions of Italy have to offer - from the history, architecture, art, culture, food, traditions and so much more! 🇮🇹
