Sicily: Trapani & the West Coast with Sarah Murdoch | Rick Steves Travel Talks
Home-basing in charming Trapani, Rick Steves' Europe tour guide and co-author Sarah Murdoch presents this travel talk about the fun variety of side-trips around Sicily's West Coast: the ancient theater and temple at Segesta, the cliff-capping fairy village of Erice, the historic Carthaginian stronghold of Mozia and its nearby salt flats, and mellow Favignana — the best stop on the Egadi Islands.

SICILY, TRAPANI VIRTUAL TOUR
Il videoracconto di una giornata spesa ad esplorare (anzi, ri-esplorare a distanza di anni) la falce che si protende verso il Mediterraneo e rappresenta l'ultimo lembo di terra siciliana ad ovest.
Il centro storico di Trapani, le sue mura, il lungomare di Tramontana, il Bastione Conca, i vicoli verso Ligny, la Torre e le case dell'omonima affascinante borgata in cima alla falce. Ma anche il porto peschereccio, i corsi mondani, la tonnara di San Giuliano, e molto altro in questo video girato nella seconda metà di settembre del 2016, prima di imbarcarsi per Marettimo (su questo canale anche alcuni video dedicati all'isola più lontana delle Egadi).
Lo sviluppo turistico di Trapani è stato accelerato negli ultimi anni dai nuovi collegamenti aerei low cost con l'aeroporto di Trapani Birgi, in particolare effettuati da Rayanair con il Regno Unito e altri paesi del nord Europa. La stessa compagnia, per la verità, collega molto bene alcuni aerorporti del nord Italia, come Bologna e Bergamo, con la città siciliana.
Le dimensioni di Trapani sono ideali per un fine settimana esotico - soprattutto per i nordici che qui si sentono veramente ad un passo dall'Africa provenendo magari dalle lande scozzesi - e la città rappresenta senza dubbio un punto di partenza perfetto per diverse mete: Favignana, Levanzo, Marettimo, ma anche Erice, Marsala, lo Stagnone, la Riserva dello Zingaro, Palermo, le saline di Nubia e molto altro.
In questo video, però, mi sono concentrato solo sul centro città, su quello cioè che si può vedere uscendo un paio d'ore a piedi dal proprio b&b o albergo. Poi, evidentemente, basta noleggiare un'auto per raggiungere tutto ciò che sta attorno e vicino a Trapani.
Video girato con Canon Ixus 285HS, montato con iMovie.

Sicily | Trapani & Egadi Islands | Italy Travel Diary
Last summer in Sicily. My first trip to this part of Italy and the beginning of two months of solo travel. The port town of Trapani on the west coast smells like salt and fresh seafood and sounds like seagulls chatting above neighbours on their balconies. The boat trip to the sparkling aqua coves of Levanzo and Favignana, the Egadi Islands, marked the beginning of an endless summer of adventures.

ERICE ( Trapani - Sicily - Italy ) - TOUR COMPLETO -
Erice (Monte San Giuliano fino al 1934), è un comune italiano di 28.356 abitanti della provincia di Trapani in Sicilia.Fa parte del circuito dei borghi più belli d'Italia in qualità di Ospite Onorario.Il centro cittadino, di soli 512 abitanti, è posto sull'omonimo Monte Erice, mentre la maggior parte della popolazione si concentra nell'abitato di Casa Santa, contiguo alla città di Trapani. Il nome di Erice deriva da Erix, un personaggio mitologico, figlio di Afrodite e di Bute, ucciso da Eracle. Dal 1167 al 1934 ebbe il nome di Monte San Giuliano.Cuore del comune è il capoluogo che sorge sull'omonimo monte. Un tempo era uno dei comuni più estesi della Sicilia, comprendeva infatti territori assai distanti dal capoluogo: Valderice, Custonaci, Buseto Palizzolo e San Vito Lo Capo. Diverse le frazioni che completano il territorio, alle falde della montagna madre (Casa Santa, Pizzolungo, Roccaforte, Rigaletta, Tangi, Ballata, Napola, ecc.) A Erice sono rimasti solo poco più di cinquecento abitanti, che si decuplicano nel periodo estivo.

Places to see in ( Trapani - Italy )
Places to see in ( Trapani - Italy )
Trapani is a city in western Sicily with a crescent-shaped coastline. At the western tip, offering views as far as the Aegadian Islands, is the 17th-century Torre di Ligny watchtower. It houses the Museo di Preistoria e del Mare, with archeological artifacts. North of the harbor, the Chiesa del Purgatorio church holds wooden sculptures that are paraded around the city during Easter’s Processione dei Misteri.
Trapani is a city and comune on the west coast of Sicily in Italy. It is the capital of the Province of Trapani. Founded by Elymians, the city is still an important fishing port and the main gateway to the nearby Egadi Islands.Much of Trapani's economy still depends on the sea. Fishing and canning are the main local industries, with fishermen using the mattanza technique to catch tuna. Coral is also an important export, along with salt, marble, and marsala wine. The nearby coast is lined with numerous salt-pans. The city is also an important ferry port, with links to the Egadi Islands, Pantelleria, Sardinia, and Tunisia. It also has its own airport, the Trapani-Birgi Airport.
Much of the old city of Trapani dates from the later medieval or early modern periods; there are no extant remains of the ancient city. Many of the city's historic buildings are designed in the Baroque style. Notable monuments include:
The Church of Sant'Agostino (14th century), with the splendid rose-window
The Church of Santa Maria di Gesù (15th–16th centuries)
The magnificent Basilica-Sanctuary of Maria Santissima Annunziata (also called Madonna di Trapani) originally built in 1315–1332 and rebuilt in 1760. It houses a marble statue of the Madonna of Trapani, which might be the work of Nino Pisano, and with the museum Agostino Pepoli.
Fontana di Tritone (Triton's Fountain)
The Baroque Palazzo della Giudecca or Casa Ciambra.
The Cathedral (built in 1421, but restored to the current appearance in the 18th century by Giovanni Biagio Amico). It includes an Annunciation attributed to Anthony van Dyck.
Church of Maria SS. dell'Intria, another notable example of Sicilian Baroque.
Church of Badia Nuova, a small Baroque church.
Castello di Terra, a ruined 12th-century castle.
Ligny Tower, a 17th-century watchtower housing an archaeological museum.
Monte Erice is a cable car ride from the city and aside from the cobbled streets and medieval castle, there are views of Tunisia and Africa from up there on clear days. Several beaches run along the coast of Trapani, the best of which are at Marausa about 9 km (6 mi) south of the city.
Trapani-Birgi Airport is a military-civil joint use airport (third for traffic on the island). Recently the airport has seen an increase of traffic thanks to low-cost carriers from all parts of Europe (i.e. London-Stansted and London-Luton, Paris Beauvais, Dublin, Bruxelles, Munich, Frankfurt, Eindhoven, Stockholm, Malta).
The city is renowned for its Easter related Holy Week activities and traditions, culminating between Good Friday and Holy Saturday in the Processione dei Misteri di Trapani, colloquially simply the Misteri di Trapani (in English the Procession of the Mysteries of Trapani or the Mysteries of Trapani), a day-long passion procession organized and sponsored by the city's guilds, featuring twenty floats of wood, canvas and glue sculptures, mostly from the 17th and 18th centuries, of individual scenes of the events of the Passion. The Misteri are among the oldest continuously running religious events in Europe, having been played every Good Friday since before the Easter of 1612. Running for at least 16 continuous hours, but occasionally well beyond the 24 hours, they are the longest religious festival in Sicily and in Italy. Important also to the cult of the Madonna of Trapani. The city gives its name to a variety of pesto – pesto alla trapenese – made using almonds instead of the traditional pine nuts in Ligurian pesto. Trapani was also used, even if never mentioned by name, but only evidenced in movie scenes, as the base for filming the first serie of La piovra drama miniseries.
