Tindari

Between Capo D’Orlando and Milazzo, driving along the Palermo-Messina highway you will undoubtably notice what seems to be a large church perched on a rock high above the sea. This is the sanctuary of the Black Madonna of Tindari, a place of pilgrimage but also the site of an Ancient Greek town.  There are ruins still existing here where the town once was.

This is a great site for history lovers, but also for those who are a interested in stunning architecture, as the church itself is really quite beautiful inside and out.
