Tietoa
Nopeat faktat: Over 6,000 works of art fill the collection, featuring Sicilian masterpieces from the Middle Ages through the Baroque period. Visitors discover frescoes from 12th century Norman churches alongside 18th century Sicilian paintings by artists like Antonino Leto.
Kohokohdat: The gallery hosts the Palatine Chapel's stunning mosaics originally from the 12th century, offering a rare chance to see Byzantine art in situ. Unique wooden ceilings with intricate geometric patterns create a mesmerizing canopy above visitors, enhancing the medieval ambiance.
Sisäpiirin vinkit
- Wear comfortable shoes to navigate the uneven floors and stairs.
- Photography without flash is allowed but check specific room restrictions.
- Focus on the Palatine Chapel early in your visit before crowds gather.
- Skip the second-floor modern art exhibits if short on time, the medieval collection is the highlight.

Oletko kuullut ilmaisista kävelykierroksista?
Matkustettuani yli 30 maassa, toivoisin, että joku olisi kertonut minulle tästä alusta alkaen, sillä se muutti täysin tapani kokea uudet kaupungit.
Ilmaiset kävelykierrokset. Kyllä, oikeasti ilmaiset. Ei luottokorttia. Ei piilokuluja.
Paikallinen opas, 2-3 tuntia
Tärkeimmät nähtävyydet, piilotetut helmet, paikalliset tarinat
100 % tippi-pohjainen
Oppaat ansaitsevat vain tippien kautta, joten he antavat parastaan
Tipaat sen mukaan, mikä tuntuu oikealta
Lopuksi tipaat sen, minkä koet oikeaksi
Olen tehnyt näitä monissa kaupungeissa ja ne ovat olleet lähes jokaisen matkani kohokohta. Jos vierailet kohteessa Palermo, Italy, tee tämä ensimmäisenä päivänä. Kiität minua myöhemmin.
