Trapani, what to see in 2 days
Museum of Illusions
Would you like to feel like Alice growing up, or walk like Spiderman on the walls of a room?
Then I absolutely recommend a visit to the museum of illusions in Trapani!
The guides are very prepared and explain many illusions created by our mind, the visit lasts about 90 minutes and you can take some really fun shots.
The museum is the one that children will certainly appreciate the most because it can stimulate their curiosity to perfection, while animals are not allowed because the stimulations are dangerous for them.
Prices and timetables
13 euros, reservation is required
From Tuesday to Sunday 10 – 13.35 / 15.30 – 20.30
Where to park
You can park on the streets around the museum.
Trapani, beaches
The beaches below the walls of Trapani extend from the promontory of the tonnara Tipa to Piazza Vittorio Emanuele, then continue below the walls of Tramontana, where they are called Porta Botteghelle beach.
The most beautiful point of the city beaches of Trapani, however, is undoubtedly the cliff below the tower of Ligny, the extreme tip of the city pier that stretches into the sea. Here you can get off the cliffs very easily and let yourself be surprised by the panorama with the Egadi islands in the background.
SUMMARY + TIPS
Trapani is a quiet Sicilian town, where you still feel strong the traditions and the atmosphere of an old-fashioned village and it is at the same time a worldly town, where you can spend your carefree evenings. If you are based here you can move comfortably and visit its surroundings, including the wonders of San Vito Lo Capo, the Zingaro Reserve and Scopello.
