MILAZZO - SICILY
One
of the most important and ancient towns
in the province of Messina, it lies at the base of a
long narrow peninsula that extends towards
the Eolian Islands. It was founded by the
Greeks of Zancle (Messina) in 716 B.C. and was
called Mylae. Despite the foreign dominations
that followed, it always remained a city of primary importance.
Today it is the home of some interesting
archaeological ruins and ancient
buildings, including the imposing
castle overlooking the town. Milazzo
is divided into two parts: the medieval village,
which is the higher and more picturesque area, and the
modern centre which is particularly active due
to its port that is the main link
between the Eolian Islands and Sicily.
EOLIAN ISLANDS - LIPARI
Among
Sicily's smaller islands, the Eolian Archipelago
distinguishes itself for the extraordinary
and unique characteristics of each of the
seven islands, all of which are of volcanic origin.
Lipari, the most important island of the
archipelago, is a concentration of natural beauty
and cultural elements, settled there through the
centuries, that can be rediscovered in the traditions and
rhythms of the Eolian lifestyle.
Visitors can enjoy the
island's unspoilt nature, sandy beaches,
white as snow pumice mountains and crystal clear sea. The
island's Castle, which houses one of the most important
museums of the Mediterranean,
offers visitors a glance at its ancient history.
Attending an Italian Language and Culture Course
in the Eolian Islands will allow you to
fully immerse yourself into the culture,
colours and flavours of the Mediterranean, making
your study holiday a unique
one.
