IL PARCO DELLE CAVE
A "hidden city" dug into a disused sandstone limestone quarry and still today an underground path lasting about 1 hour and a half is present and can be visited, where you can see how this material was extracted and worked, used in construction chosen for its fundamental characteristics such as lightness and porosity.
The heritage preserved at the Parco delle Cave di Marsala is immense and extends at different altitudes up to 30 meters below street level.
SALT PANS
WALKING BY WIND MILLS AND SALT PANS
