Return to Trapani




I have posted these before but I believe that they will be of interest to new visitors as well as regulars as this city is fascinating. Located on the north western corner to Sicily, this very ancient Sicilian city may actually be the real Ithaca of the Odyssey. The  famous English scholar Butler as well  as others believe that this epic was actually written in Sicily. Basically, nothing at all is actually known about Homer. At any rate, this is a very nice city to visit. These are various cortili or courtyards.
