It is sells authentic produce, much of it from the region: herbs, tomatoes, ripe blood-red oranges, deep purple aubergines, bright red chili peppers and lemons. All are fresh, and cut up while you're waiting and there are stalls of local meats and seafood - a swordfish might eye as you walk past.

Places to visit (my recommendations)
Simply known as the Duomo di Syracuse, this monumental cathedral is a truly beautiful structure and dates back to the 7th century.
The front facade of this cathedral is quite stunning – it features a series of columns, and an array of stone statues depicting legendary religious figures.
With an architectural style that is considered Sicilian Baroque, the cathedral has elements of Roman design, mixed with 17th century features.
The interior of the cathedral is just as impressive with high arched walls and a detailed altar complete with a variety of religious paintings. Furthermore, the church features an amazing stained glass window that depicts the last supper.

The Neapolis Archaeological Park is located on the northern side of Syracuse modern city, on the Viale Paradiso.
Once inside, you can admire:
• The Roman amphitheatre, almost completely carved out of the
rock. In the past, it was hosting wild beasts and gladiator fights.
• The Greek theatre that can hold up to 20,000 people
• The altar of Hieron II, dedicated to Zeus and used for animal
sacrifices
• The Ear of Dionysius (Orecchio di Dionisio in italian). It is a old
limestone quarry of more than 20 meters high. Its name comes from the entrance shape, which looks like the inside of a giant ear. Legend has it that Denys the tyrant of Syracuse was there to listen to the conversations of his prisoners. Inside, the echo is impressive.
