Sicily is a picturesquely situated island in Italy, with a truly incredible climate, a perfect spot for winter season holidays. Sicily has got its own president, does it also have a separate capital? If so, what is it? Which city’s the most important?
Sicily is somewhat separated from Italy, although it’s still a part of it. The island’s a home for over 5 mln people, who are ruled by the president Nello Musumeci.
On a list of the most important Sicilian cities, we could most certainly include Catania, Syracuse, Trapani, Cefalù and of course, the capital city – Palermo.
The capital city in its own autonomous region is inhabited by approximately 650 thousand people. It’s a cultural, tourist attraction as well as an industrial, economic capital of Sicily. Is Palermo safe though? It sure is!
