Giuliana is a charming village in the Palermo hinterland, located on a panoramic hill at the foot of the Sicani Mountains. The village, immersed in a peaceful natural landscape, retains an authentic atmosphere with its narrow streets, stone houses, and sweeping views of the surrounding valleys.

The symbol of Giuliana is its Castello Federiciano, a medieval fortress attributed to Emperor Frederick II and perfectly integrated into the rocky profile on which it stands. From its terraces, you can enjoy spectacular views of the Sicilian countryside, making it one of the most fascinating points of interest in the area. The walls of the village also house ancient churches, convents, and small artistic treasures that tell the long history of the area.

Life in the village is marked by popular traditions and religious festivals that involve the entire community, while the surrounding countryside invites visitors to take walks, go on excursions, and visit local producers, including olive groves, vineyards, and farms.

Giuliana is an ideal destination for those who want to discover the authenticity of Sicilian villages, their history, and direct contact with nature, in a peaceful and uncrowded setting.
