The rolling landscape is dotted with olive and almond groves. Nearby you'll find the Pergusa and Rossomanno Nature Reserves. Don't miss the archaeological museum in Aidone, home to the extraordinary treasures of Morgantina, as well as the mosaics of the Roman Villa del Casale near the medieval town of Piazza Armerina. Be sure to visit Enna's Cathedral and Castle. The Floristella/Grottacalda Mining Park is also well worth exploring for its remarkable historical significance.
