Other things to keep in mind: The Casuzza di Girgenti is located in a hilly area, in the heart of the Historic Center of Agrigento which has a typically Arab urban structure among the most authentic and best preserved in Sicily; so it is a place that I recommend to those who are fascinated by the typical narrow alleys, the courtyards, the many up and down stairs [not recommended for those with walking difficulties] and numerous and lively squares where you can breathe a return to the past, to the genuine.
