Duomo di San Giorgio

Reviewed By Elena257 - Timisoara, Romania

This church is one of a kind. It dominates the square. Inside you will see the only church having curtains hanged between the columns. You can also have a small tour if the old church destroyed after earthquake.

Portale di San Giorgio

Reviewed By SallyF906 - Northampton, United Kingdom

Not far from the Giardini Ibleo, this is all that remains of the Church of San Giorgio that was destroyed in the C17th earthquake but it is certainly worth going to have a look. Originally built in C14th probably by the notable Chiaramonte family it is constructed in the Catalan Gothic style. In the lunette you can see St George slaying the dragon and above that the House of Aragon coat of arms.

San Giovanni Battista's Cathedral

Reviewed By AnnoAurora

It was the noontime bells ringing from this Cathedral that lured me over there during a short stay at Ragusa. It was a great experience to enter there and share time for prayers, knowing that millions of other people before me through the ages, did exactly that.

Ragusa Ibla

Reviewed By traveltheglobe0919 - Singapore, Singapore

The best way to appreciate Ragusa Ibla is to climb up to Ragusa Superiore and enjoy the breathtaking views at sunset at the steps next to Chiesa di Santa Maria Della Scale. You can also choose to take the local bus up, and walk about 10 mins to the vantage point. Buses #11 or #33 depart from the bus stop at the front of of the main garden Giardino Ibleo. The ride up is scenic and rewarding, and offers a different experience vs the climb. We did both. Took the bus up for sunset and did the hike at the break of dawn to catch sunrise. I must say that the sunset views are more spectacular. Ragusa Ibla is a charming little hilltop city that can be easily explored in two days at a leisurely pace. To me it’s like an open air museum where you’ll want to check out every nook and corner. In the evenings, the city gets even more atmospheric as you stroll along the cobbled streets set against a backdrop of lovely baroque architecture amid dramatic lighting.
