Teatro Politeama Garibaldi (pass by)

After leaving the port we go to Piazza Castelnuovo or Piazza Politeama, named after the theater that dominates the square. The Politeama Garibaldi Theater, started in 1867 by Giuseppe Damiani Almeyda and inaugurated in 1874, although incomplete and lacking coverage, was conceived to enhance the social function of the theater as the "People's Theater": the horseshoe-shaped hall in 1874 had in fact a capacity of 5,000 spectators, a double row of boxes and a gallery divided into two orders. Today it is the prestigious seat of the Sicilian Symphony Orchestra.Piazza Castelnuovo is one of the most famous and popular in Palermo. Piazza Castelnuovo, known together with Piazza Ruggero Settimo as Piazza Politeama, also houses several statues by Civiletti and a music platform, of fine workmanship, built in 1875 by the Florio family to avoid the construction of other houses in the square, in addition to their majestic villa.

Capo Street Market

The Capo Market in Palermo is still located in the upper part of the ancient Arab quarter of Schiavoni, pirates and slave traders. A very popular neighborhood, it was formed in the Muslim age and is nestled between baroque churches and iconic street food. The main entrance to the market is given by the fourteenth-century Porta Carini. A narrow street widens and narrows between the stalls that project from the outside, people make it impractical because it stops to observe, taste and buy. It is also the perfect place to find culinary souvenirs, typical vacuum-packed products such as dried tomatoes, capers, spices and anchovies in oil, sardines in salt. It is also considered the fish market par excellence. Bright colors and inebriating perfumes mix with typical specialties and the voices of the merchants, the "abbanniate" inviting to buy their goods. This is why the market is a place not to be missed.
