It is a charming village located above Taormina. The most amazing thing of Castelmola consists in the breathtaking views of the whole surrounding area, that you will be able to enjoy from up there.
After visiting the ruins of the castle that gives the name to the village itself, you can take a break to enjoy a refreshing granita or a glass of almond wine at the San Giorgio bar, discovering, through the signatures left in the golden book of the bar, that a lot of important personalities, sat here in the past, writing enthusiastic comments and notes.
The combination of the visit of Taormina with Castelmola, a small village perched on a rocky hill at 530 meters above the sea level, will let you understand why this corner of Sicily became so popular all over the world. The road alone to reach this high spot is worth while. Once there you will be guided through the narrow little alleys to find out the ruins of a medieval castle and a surprising local hangout.
