Villa Romana del Casale

The large Roman Villa is one of the highlights of Sicily, with the remians of a large number of rooms covered by a huge canopy to protect the numerous elaborate mosaics which are much more impressive than those at Pompeii.

The Villa sits 5km South West of Piazza Armerina, with about 5 buses a day from Piazza Senatore Mareschali, or you could walk, or take a taxi from the nearby Piazza Generale Cascino.
