We will ride past baroque fountains and neoclassical churches to the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele III. Afterwards, we will ascend to the Church of Montalto, offering a splendid panoramic view of the Sicilian city.

On the descent, we will see the medieval Church of St. Francis of Assisi and the baroque Palace of Monte di Pietà, impacted by the 1908 earthquake. We will then ride to Piazza Unità d'Italia, where the Government Palace and the fountain of Neptune by Giovanni Angelo Montorsoli can be admired.
