Taormina is one of the most famous tourist resorts on the island. A place of great charm and beauty, the splendid Sicilian town has seduced poets and writers, attracted illustrious travellers, and welcomed internationally renowned celebrities. Visitors who come from all over the world to this "strip of paradise on earth" (Goethe, Journey to Italy 1787), to see its Greco-Roman theatre, to walk along its medieval streets, to admire its breathtaking views, to taste its excellent gastronomy, to relax in the sun of its wonderful beaches, are enchanted. Moreover, as the French writer Guy de Maupassant said, in Taormina "you can find everything that seems created on earth to seduce the eyes, mind and imagination".
