  Strategically located between Europe and Africa, Sicily was an important city in commercial and military activities. Palermo is today a cultural and business center. Palermo architecture and projects reflect its complex history, producing a style and distinguished atmosphere. The most interesting examples of palace architecture are nomade Piazza della Vittoria, with a renovated chapel in XII century and dedicated to the apostles Peter and Paul. The palace is decorated with mosaics and a mixture of Romanesque art, Byzantine and Arab. 7 km from Palermo is the Cathedral and the Benedictine monastery at Monreale, built by William II. All 7 km from Palermo is the city-resort CEFA, with Arabian-style architectural attractions, and Spanish nomade. Cathedral is the most relevant example.
