9 Museums in Taormina That You Shouldn't Miss
Volcanic Mount Etna and the Ionian Sea provide the cinema-worthy backdrop for Taormina, Sicily's legendary resort town. Twisting medieval streets and a second-century Greek theater add to its romantic air, which inspired the writings of D.H. Lawrence and Truman Capote. Take a cable car to the beach, or walk uphill behind the Church of St. Joseph for panoramic views.

Amazing place! A beautiful house with an incredible history. We arrived out of hours (there is one tour a day, alternating between Italian and English, I think at around 11am) but Maria the manager gave us a personal tour anyway (for a small but completely reasonable fee). The 'secret room' is incredibly special.

We visited Franco during our trip to Taormina. The paintings on the stairs leading up to the gallery drew us in! Upon entering, Franco was welcoming and friendly and has interesting stories from his time living across the world. He was happy for us to take our time absorbing the pictures. We fell in love with a beautiful oil painting on canvas of Isola Bella; the painting really captured the reflection of the sunset on the sea, so naturally, we went back to purchase it that same day. Franco's daughter was there when we went back who was very sweet. It is worth a visit and I fail to see how anyone couldn't love one of the paintings; after all, if you can't live in Sicily, then why not take a piece of it home? There is a variety of pictures to suit a variety of budgets.

Purchased items here to be shipped to US. The e mail correspondences were good. One ordered item had some defects and they sent photos to us prior to shipping and we decided to ask for a new one. When the replacement was ready the items were shipped. One of the items was chipped/damaged during shipping (pieces in wrapping) in spite of excellent packing. They are now using the insurance to order another replacement piece. All of this were done with great integrity and politeness! Excellent follow up! Would definitely make purchase here again!
