Like all the other
Italian regions,
Sicily has much to offer to its visitors, and not only in terms of art, food and nature. Sicily is well-known for its wonderful sea, for its baroque monuments, but there is also one more feature that will make you fall in love with this region: its folklore and the traditional events that take place through the year in all of its cities.
One of the next traditional events to be held in Sicily will be "La cavalcata di
San Giuseppe" (St Joseph's ride), which takes place every year in March in
Scicli, a village in the
province of Ragusa. Ragusa is a wonderful
Sicilian province, a popular travel destination above all in summer, when you can enjoy the sea and the sun in well-known seaside resorts like
Marina di Ragusa. However, visiting this city and the villages nearby is definitely very interesting also in all the other seasons, thanks to the historical and cultural heritage that these places preserve, and thanks to the folkloristic events that take place from spring to winter.
