Sicily's Baroque Duo: Ragusa & Modica
🏰 Ragusa: The Two-Faced Beauty ◇ Ragusa Ibla (Old Town) • San Giorgio Cathedral: A Baroque masterpiece with a dramatic curved facade 250-step staircase perfect for "The White Lotus" vibes🏺 • Hidden Gems: Wisteria-draped alleys of Via Scale Giardino Ibleo's cliffside gardens ◇ Ragusa Superiore (New Town) • Best viewpoint: Corso Minzoni 125 for panoramic Ibla shots "A town that climbs hills like a cat and poses for photos at every turn." 🍫 Modica: Where Chocolate is Sacred ◇ Baroque Wonders • San Giorgio Church: 164-step staircase leading to heaven (or just great Instagrams) • San Pietro Church: Statue-lined stairway rivaling Rome's Spanish Steps ◇ Chocolate Pilgrimage • Antica Dolceria Bonajuto (since 1880): Try: Chili-dark cocoa or Sea salt vanilla 🌄 Secret: Their recipe skips modern refining—gritty like Aztec gold "In Modica, even the churches have staircases wide enough for chocolate-induced daydreams." #SicilianBaroque #ChocolateTrail #WorldHeritageWander
