A program that is as curious and precious as this year never before: Le Vie dei Tesori returns to Catania for its fifth consecutive year and puts together a calendar of eighteen places, enriched by many experiences and walks, in the historic center and above all, outside the city, climb Mount Etna in search of gardens on lava, Japanese mushrooms, noble villas. We will visit for the first time a Roman tomb from the 5th century.
Acireale is also present in the festival, which instead offers a program of seven places and nine experiences, all to be discovered.
It starts on Saturday 1 October and then off for five weekends, again on Saturday and Sunday, until 30 October. Info on places and appointments, and on coupons on www.leviedeitesori.com
