Italian Language Schools in Taormina


Learn Italian in the fantastic language schools in Taormina, a pretty town on the east coast of Sicily, with a population of approximately 11,000 inhabitants. Since the 19th century, the town has been a very popular tourist destination due to its beautiful sandy beaches and pleasant climate. The city was built high up on a hill forming the last projecting point of the mountain ridge that extends along the coast to this point from Cape Pelorus. The old town site is roughly 300 m above the sea, while a very steep and almost isolated rock which was crowned by a Saracen castle, rises about 150 m higher. The most remarkable monument remaining is the ancient theatre, one of the most celebrated ruins in Sicily. For the most part it is built from brick, indicating a Roman construction, but the arrangement and plan are in the Greek style. It is a fantastic example of foreign architecture and we consider it a 'must see' during your Italian course. The area around the city is stunning and with many places of tourist interest.
