Took an inter-bus from Siracusa to Noto which was about 55 minutes journey . Return trip by bus was €5.90 each. This part of Sicily seems better connected by buses and trains compared to western part of Sicily somehow.
Inter-bus is a private bus company in Sicily . Checked on this because I am puzzled as why I see there are buses in this eastern corridor rather than the western side of Sicily . Inter-bus makes a profit from their annual reports but the bus does pick up passengers in the smaller towns on the way to Noto . I guess private entreprise & making money can also provide public services ! Interesting fact .

Noto is a baroque style town with much fine baroque style architecture . The bus stop was just 5 minutes to walk to Porto Reale ( the gateway ) to the old town center of Noto .









Walked the main drag of town , both sides of road had fine baroque style buildings .

Noto is a lovely town . I am impressed by the fine Baroque architecture .There were many tourists but not overwhelming .



Rahiyah is impressed that there was an office of Sotheby in Noto which says something for this small town ! Thiru recommended this cafe to so we walked there . The cafe was called Cafe Scilia , an old cafe and inside interiors were very nice ! Had an old world charm about it .




The main drag was really nice to walk as its the main road of the centrio historico . Weather was 24c and it wasn’t too hot .

I like like like many many things I have seen in this part of Italy .

We got the bus back to Siracusa. This time the bus was 10 minutes early ! Thank goodness, we were at the bus stop early . This was a lovely, relaxing day outing !
