Enna

Italy's highest provincial capital, Enna sits atop a ridge at the centre of Sicily, earning it the nickname "Belvedere of Sicily" for its sweeping views across the island. The medieval streets of its walkable historic core are thick with churches, including the Duomo di Enna, and the Lombardy Castle rises above the town. The site is also associated with the ancient myth of Persephone and Demeter, said to have unfolded near the nearby Lake Pergusa.
