Graveyards might not be the first thing to cross your mind when it comes to tourist attractions, but they can reveal a great deal about a place. Explore SantOrsola Cemetery for some clues to the past and its people.

Sant'Orsola Cemetery is an ideal place to start out your day in Palermo. This burial ground comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it isn't the only spot to see here. Allow some time for other attractions like Teatro Massimo, Palermo Cathedral, and Palace of the Normans to get a complete picture of what's on offer in the area.

9.4/10 Exceptional! (75 reviews)

The room and breafast area were very clean. The location is right down the alley from the Teatro Massino. Other sights are walkable. There is a shuttle bus to the airport (approx €6)that stops along Via Roma near the B&B. There is no lift but the rooms are only one flight of stairs.

8.6/10 Excellent! (590 reviews)

The only problem was that the jacuzzi was booked the entire weekend and we were not able to use it which sucks. After that was the main reason to book the hotel. None of the spa services were available because over booked. They should alert when you make the reservation.

Ballaro Market

Buy freshly caught fish, eat Sicilian specialties and search for vintage clothes at a market that has been serving Palermo's residents for centuries.

The best views over magnificent Palermo are from the bell tower of the church [and I'm talking here about the best way I could have spent 2 EUR!].
You must wear a helmet, which ends up as a very stylish accessory.
