The Selinunte Archaeological Park houses the ruins of the Doric temples of the ancient Greek city. Founded in the 7th century BC, Selinunte was an important commercial center before being destroyed by the Carthaginians in 409 BC. Today the park offers a fascinating immersion in history with temples, sanctuaries and the acropolis overlooking the sea.

The Cathedral of Mazara del Vallo, the "Santissimo Salvatore", immediately captivates you. This mixture of Norman origins and baroque splendor was begun as early as 1086 and later redesigned in the baroque style in the 17th century. The sea-green domes give the cathedral a unique charm, especially when they shine in the light of the Sicilian sun. As you walk through the main square in front of the cathedral, you immediately notice how it is embedded in the surrounding architecture and yet stands out as a dominant monument. A highlight of the interior is the ornate carving and the detailed statues that recall the history of the city and its rulers. Particularly nice: The spacious, shady squares around the cathedral invite you to take a break in the shade of the palm trees. If you come in the afternoon, make sure you allow enough time for the visit, as the cathedral sometimes closes earlier.
