"Sicilians build things like they will live forever and eat like they will die tomorrow. Going to Sicily is better than going to the moon"
Palermo is the capital city of the region of Sicily in Italy (or you can identify this with the most popular web series 'Money Heist'. Palermo was once the epicenter of the Sicily mafia which ruled the city for decades. The things are good now and the city is welcoming to tourists.
Palermo is not only about architecture or history. It is about the exquisite life of an Italian - thick coffee, narrow streets, night life, people dressed in style and more. However, you have to visit the palace, old theatres and some amazing churches of Palermo and the nearby towns.
