Via Paolo Impellizzeri, Siracusa

This is inside the built-up area of Siracusa, on the Ionian coast by the Gulf of Syracuse and the mouth of the Ciane and Anapo rivers. The Plemmirio Marine Protected Area lies just south of the city. Ortigia, the historic island centre of Siracusa, is a UNESCO World Heritage component within the city, and the wider city is known for its Greek and Roman archaeological remains including the Neapolis area. The flat coastal plain and low limestone plateau around the city are the immediate landscape.
