On the charming Via Umberto street, you'll find a good and interesting restaurant: Giardino di Venere. It consists of a beautifully designed open courtyard with an adjoining Venus Bar. Upstairs, there are several pleasant rooms, including two magnificently decorated halls. The food is very tasty and reasonably priced.

Besides a church that is unfortunately usually locked, you can reach the Natural History Museum via a magnificent courtyard with a nice bar and outdoor area.

Castelbuono Castle, a symbol of this small town in the Palermo hinterland. And it couldn't be otherwise, given its grandeur and the glorious history that ties it to the very life of Castelbuono even today. The castle was commissioned by the Ventimiglia family, one of the richest and most noble families in Sicily, whose ties are not only to the castle, but to the very existence of the town of Castelbuono. There is little information about the origins of Castelbuono, but we know that in 1269, King Charles of Anjou confiscated the feudal state of Geraci from the Ventimiglia family, forcing the then head of the family, Alduino, to find new accommodation for the inhabitants of his village. The settlement was married to Ipsigro, an ancient Byzantine farmhouse, which once stood where the center of Castelbuono stands today.

a beautiful path, not steep but lots of rubble. Sturdy shoes recommended. Beautiful view to the sea. Parking available at the Santuario di Gibilmanna

Looking at the sanctuary, on the left the path begins...fairly simple and beaten. When you start to climb in altitude, there are some rocks that are not very solid due to the rains probably that could cause falls.

Especially beautiful at sunset!

Beautiful view of the mountains all the way to the sea. But you have that almost everywhere in the Madonie.

It is a great place to watch the sunset, but it is also worth a visit during the day. The church and the monastery gardens are also worth seeing.
