Sicily continues to attract large numbers of tourists, despite the global economic crisis that is affecting economies around the world.

The island south of Italy is invaded by tourists from all over the world in different periods of the year, appreciating not only monuments and historic towns, but the local cuisine, folklore, traditions and principally, the mild climate throughout the year.

More and more visitors and tourists are not there just to rest and relax. They see the current crisis as an opportunity to buy their place in the sun at a very convenient price. Summer is the peak tourist season in general, but to every season of the year is suitable to seek a dream home and today, thanks to the internet, you can find a bargain. You can buy a small house in a medieval old town just a few kilometers from the sea and beaches of fine white sand.

In particular the small town of Cianciana, located in the hills of the province of Agrigento, enjoys a pleasant location and a mild climate throughout the year and in recent years has been visited by people from all over the world.

The village lies on a hill from which you can see to the south-west, the African sea, and is surrounded by Sicani mountains that protects it from cold winds.

The landscape is very interesting, it varies from olive groves and vineyards to the Mediterranean maquis and forests. The city is clean, has a nice friendly atmosphere, and is very welcoming to foreigners who visit or settle here after buying their dream home.
