Catania is an ancient port city on Sicily's east coast. It sits at the foot of Mt. Etna, an active volcano with trails leading up to the summit. The city's wide central square, Piazza del Duomo, features the whimsical Fontana dell'Elefante statue and richly decorated Catania Cathedral. In the southwest corner of the square, La Pescheria weekday fish market is a rowdy spectacle surrounded by seafood restaurants.
Kaiserswerth is a relaxed riverside suburb with a village feel, known for the ruins of Kaiserpfalz, a 12th-century castle with striking views of the Rhine and surrounding countryside. Cobblestone streets are lined with baroque buildings housing boutiques, gift shops and stores selling cheese, wurst and sweets. The main square, Kaiserswerther Markt, is ringed by cafes and beer gardens dishing up classic German food.
Sicily, the largest Mediterranean island, is just off the "toe" of Italy's "boot." Its rich history is reflected in sites like the Valley of the Temples, the well-preserved ruins of 7 monumental, Doric-style Greek temples, and in the Byzantine mosaics at the Cappella Palatina, a former royal chapel in capital city Palermo. On Sicily’s eastern edge is Mount Etna, one of Europe’s highest active volcanoes.
