Legend has it that the Black Madonna statue fished out of the sea has healing powers; a visit to this picturesque church just may prove it to you.

You can see the basilica on the top of the hill from miles around and it's well worth stopping off for a visit. You can't drive up into the town so you have to park in a large car park at the bottom of the hill and take a bus up to the top. Make sure you check the current opening times for the basilica and allow time to queue for a ticket and catch the bus although these do come frequently. According to tradition, in C9th fishermen discovered a crate with the statue of the black Madonna inside. They put her in the abandoned ruins of the temple of Ceres and a sanctuary was built in C11th by the Benedictines. The shrine became and important place of pilgrimage and was unable to cope with the number of visitors so was rebuilt in 1970s. The Madonna is made of cedar of Lebanon and is Byzantine - it is on display under the dome and is quite beautiful. The church has a beautiful fresco on the ceiling and lots of artwork that stands out against the dark stone. Also make sure you walk behind the altar where you can see the history of the statue in mosaics which are stunning. Definitely worth a visit.

Pompeii is a larger scale and a well known site that is a must see however if you like serenity, breath taking views, and no crowds, then you also need to visit Tindari. I first visited Tindari via private tour guide in the afternoon and found the site in good condition: It has a small theater, mosaics located in bath quarters, a large structure with arches ( the gymnasium) and a small museum. Across from ancient site you can see the Church that houses the statue of the Black Madonna also worth seeing. My second visit later on same week was Pompeii. I arrived with a large tour at 9am opening time, however I found site to be exhausting from large crowds of tourists but worth a visit.
