周辺のスポット/アトラクション・トップ20

The Castello di Lombardia in Enna is one of the largest and most important fortresses in Sicily. It sits strategically atop a high plateau and combines Norman, Hohenstaufen, and Aragonese architectural elements. From its towers, there are sweeping views across the island.

The castle is open, but there's not much to see inside. In my opinion, the entrance fee isn't worth it. The beautiful view is better enjoyed from the Rocca behind it. It's also free 😉

Nice walk. Sometimes there is a wire fence that you have to pass

The castle is still closed :(

Unfortunately, the castle is often shrouded in fog. But that gives it a very mystical impression! When the fog clears you have a great view.

Interesting natural forms of anthropomorphic-looking sandstone that have given rise to numerous legends about their birth.

Hidden among the paths of an ancient and enchanted landscape, mysterious stones rise up, known as the "dancing puppets". These stones, sculpted by wind and rain, have taken on wonderful shapes, which seem to dance in the shadows of the surrounding nature. Imagine walking through those places, surrounded by a mystical stillness, when suddenly you meet these stone figures. Your eyes light up with wonder and curiosity as you gaze at the unique shapes that rise before you. They are like timeless dancers, trapped in the eternity of the rocks. The figures seem to dance with grace and lightness, as if invisible music were guiding them. Their sculpted bodies tell a story of movement and harmony, of joy and sadness. They may look fragile, but they exude strength and perseverance, as if they've braved the passing of the centuries to keep on dancing. The "pupi dancers" stones are silent witnesses of the passing of time, of the secrets kept by nature and of the magic that permeates the world. Every line and curve of their shapes tells a story of mystery and enchantment, capturing the very essence of beauty and creativity. When you stand in front of these stones, you can feel a deep connection with nature and the history that shaped them. They are an invitation to reflect on our existence, on the transience of life and on the ephemeral beauty of art. Emotions mix inside you as you let yourself be enveloped by the magic of those stone dancers. In those moments, time seems to stand still. Feel the soul of the dancing stones, which open up to the sky and abandon themselves to the melody of the wind. Their presence evokes a feeling of wonder and serenity, giving a moment of peace and connection with the mystery and beauty of the universe. The "puppet dancers" stones remain as silent guardians of a story without words, but full of meaning. They invite us to grasp the poetry hidden in the simplicity of natural forms and to recognize the emotional depth that can reside in every corner of the world. And so, the dancing stones of Piazza Armerina will forever remain witnesses of our emotions, inspiring us to find our inner dance and to discover the enchantment that can exist even in the most unexpected places.

The station was located on the Dittaino-Piazza Armerina-Caltagirone railway line and remained operational until 1971. The train was mainly dedicated to the transport of goods and workers.
