36. REGUSA IBLA AT NIGHT

36. REGUSA IBLA AT NIGHT 

We decided to revisit Regusa Ibla a second time as it was so interesting. At night the towns takes on a different character. For a start there are people out in the streets and the familes and groups of friends parading up and down and queuing for a Gelato at the Gelateria but interestingly I did not see any sandwich ice creams so possibly not as popular in the South Coast as the North Coast. 

The Baroque Church at night

Restaurants in abundance giving a warm atmosphere to the town

The Duomo at night with the Dome peeping out behind. 

The wonderful early Baroque frontage of the Duomo

The Gargoyles take on a more eerie look at night

The Dome of the Duomo looking over the narrow street 

with a watchful eye.

The diligent photographer not realising he took a photo of himself through the glass door

The restaurant where the first Lemon Granita was tried 

Well we have visited and explored the Baroque towns where Montalbano solved the intricate crimes of Sicily showing us not only the Baroque towns  on the TV screen but also the Sicilian way of life and traditions woven into the stories. Seeing Baroque in Palermo, Trepani, Modena, Scicli, and Ragusa and Ragusa Ibla.  We are now about to visit the Baroque town of Noto.
