TULIPANO
Villa Tuipano is a beautiful 19th century villa, situated right in the charming old Taormina, next to Messina Gate.
Like all the typical Taormina-style houses, it is a three storey-house (ground floor, first floor and second floor) with a lovely terraced garden, and even if it is right in town, you can enjoy privacy and quietness.
It is furnished with antique Sicilian furniture and the rooms are very nice and comfortable.
Guy de Maupassant wrote: "Taormina is only a landscape, but a landscape, where you seem to find everything created on the earth to seduce the eyes, the spirit and the imagination".
Taormina appeared as "a strip of paradise on earth" to the eyes of one of its most important visitors, the German writer Johann Wolfang Goethe, who visited it in 1787.
It was an exciting discovery for the German literary man who quoted in a memoirs the warm emotions aroused by his famous "journey to Italy".
Taormina, which is now one of the most famous tourist localities in the world, halfway between Messina and Catania, was not much bigger than a village at that time, closed as a small fortress between the walls built by the Arabians almost 1000 years before.
There are many noble residences, such as the wonderful Palazzo Corvaja, Palazzo dei Duchi di Santo Stefano, and churches, every one built with a peculiar architecture style, from Chiesa dei Cappuccini to Chiesa di San Pancrazio, which was built on the rests of an Hellenistic temple.
