The mixture of the city of Palermo with Arabic-oriental flair, gothic-elegant buildings and baroque splendor is testimony to its moving fateful history as a Carthaginian foundation, Roman colony, capital of the Saracens, Norman-Staufi bridge between Europe and Asia. The port is centrally located in the city and has a very beautiful harbor promenade, the Foro Umberto I, which is very popular in the evenings. At its end there is a small park with exotic plants.
