How many days in Palermo?

One day covers the essentials that lie close together.

Aereo Lockheed F104-S (Starfighter) · Castello della Zisa · Castello della Cuba (Cuba sottana) · Duomo di Monreale

A second day lets you go beyond the very centre.

Porta Felice · Palazzo Chiaramonte-Steri · Galleria Regionale · Chiesa della Magione o della SS. Trinità · Orto Botanico · Chiesa di San Giovanni dei Lebbrosi

Three days are comfortable — enough for museums and places further out.

Cattedrale Santa Vergine Maria Assunta · Palazzo dei Normanni · Cappella Palatina · Santa Maria dell’Ammiraglio (La Martorana) · Chiesa di San Cataldo

An account lets you save the plan, change it and tick things off as you go.

We measured walking times to the main sights from different parts of the city. From the area below you reach them in 23 min on average, 72 min at the furthest, and 4 of them are within walking distance.

• Catacombe dei Cappuccini (546 m)
• Palazzo dei Normanni (702 m)
• Aereo Lockheed F104-S (Starfighter) (710 m)

For comparison: from the worst-placed area it is 97 min on average to the same places.
