     | Situated atop a verdant 
    hillside in full view of the blue Mediterranean and mighty Mt. Etna, 
    Taormina is one of the most strikingly beautiful sights in Italy. Tour the 
    Greek theater with its matchless panorama, wander among the exotic plants of 
    the botanical garden, stretch out on one of the lovely beaches or just bask 
    in the town's soft breezes and seductive charms. |
