Founded as Zancle in the second half of the 8th century BC. by Chalcidian Greeks, its name was changed to Messene in about 490 BC. with the arrival of settlers from Messenia. Later conquered by Syracusans, Mamertines and Carthaginians, it came under the influence of Rome in 264 BC.

Beautiful Isola Bella at the foot of Taormina in Sicily
The Isola Bella Nature Reserve Considered to be the 'Pearl of the Ionian', due to its wild but un-spoilt beauty, in spite of Man’s presence, Isola Bella is protected by the WWF and was recently declared a Nature Reserve.
