Information
for this port is not yet available from Silversea, but the following
information is from
http://www.bestofsicily.com/siracUSA.htm. Located near the southeastern corner of Sicily on the Ionian coast, SiracUSA (Syracuse) is built on an ancient Greek settlement founded by Corinthians in 734 BC. Some of the ancient sights to see in Syracuse are located in Ortegia, which is the medieval city's historic center. Ortegia is reached via the Ponte Nuovo, or "New Bridge." However, most of the more spectacular of the ancient landmarks are on the Teminite Hill, on the city's  periphery,
in an archeological park near Viale Teracati and Via G. Emanuele Rizzo.
Greek and Roman structures are ubiquitous in Syracuse. SiracUSA has a Greek amphitheatre carved out of the rock, and also a Roman one, both well preserved. There are beaches nearby, and there's no shortage of good restaurants in Syracuse; it is suggested that you choose one of the charming pizzerias or seafood restaurants. The pasta dishes with mussels and urchins are especially tasty but more available in Spring and Fall. |
