Syracuse preserves many traces of its ancient past. You can view buildings still standing from the 5th and 6th centuries, a Greek Theatre carved into the rock, and a Roman amphitheatre. Huge caves nearby were the source of rock for the major Greek buildings and are fascinating to tour today. The Regional Museum and the Regional Gallery contain very rich archaeologic and visual art collections. A short trip from Syracuse, you might want to visit the "Sirocco House" in Carlentini, which demonstrates how inhabitants in the eighteenth-century "air-conditioned" their homes with architectural techniques designed to avoid the sultry heat carried to Sicily by the winds from Africa.
