Acerca de

Datos rápidos: Más de 20 villas de estilo Liberty bordean el paseo marítimo, construidas entre 1909 y los años 20 por la élite de Palermo como residencias de verano. Arquitectos como Ernesto Basile combinaron motivos florales, adornos de hierro forjado y fachadas en tonos pastel que brillan de manera diferente a cada hora de luz del día.

Destacados: La Villa Pojero aún conserva en su interior su estufa de cerámica original, decorada con azulejos pintados a mano que representan limoneros sicilianos. Sube a la terraza privada frente al mar de la Villa Florio y estarás donde las familias más ricas de Palermo celebraban fiestas empapadas de champán con vistas al golfo de Mondello.

Consejos de expertos

  • Start at Piazza Valdesi and follow the seafront promenade southward to catch every villa in sequence.
  • Bring a camera with a good zoom lens to capture the wrought-iron and ceramic details that are hard to see from street level.
  • Skip midday in summer when the sun washes out the colors and the beach is packed. Early morning or late afternoon are far better.
  • Pair your walk with an aperitivo at one of the wooden kiosks on Mondello beach for a view of the villas across the water.
