C	Cristina de Micheli on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ La piccola isola di Mothia o Mozia si trova nella Laguna dello Stagnone di fronte a Marsala. (Sicilia) A livello archeologico è importantissima, xché è rara testimonianza di civiltà fenicea tra il V e VI sec A.C. La meravigliosa statua Greca, di marmo bianco, del "Giovane di Mothia" lascia stupiti per la bellezza. Era un'isola di proprietà della facoltosa famiglia Withaker, inglese, che negli anni, ha dedicato la vita per ritrovare rari reperti di una città scomparsa. Si raggiunge con barche che partono da Marsala e fanno spola avanti/indietro portando i turisti. Affascinante è la storia e il giro che vi invito a fare camminando per tutta l'isola! C'è anche un bar con tavoli all'aperto che fa ottimi panini! Non perdete questa visita, ne vale veramente la pena! CdM The small island of Mothia or Mozia is located in the Stagnone Lagoon in front of Marsala. (Sicily) At an archaeological level it is very important, because it is a rare testimony of Phoenician civilization between the 5th and 6th centuries BC. The marvelous Greek statue, in white marble, of the "Young Man of Mothia" leaves one amazed by its beauty. It was an island owned by the wealthy Withaker family, English, who over the years have dedicated their lives to find rare artifacts of a vanished city. It can be reached by boats that depart from Marsala and shuttle back / forth bringing tourists. Fascinating is the history and the tour that I invite you to do while walking around the island! There is also a bar with outside seating that makes great sandwiches! Don't miss this visit, it's really worth it! CdM
E	Ellie on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Luogo incantevole ricco di storia. Un vero paradiso terrestre con piante di ogni genere. Bellissime le aloe fiorite. Consiglio la visita dell'isola e del museo con la guida Virginia Aloisi, una vera amante della propria terra. Ci ha emozionato per due ore con la storia delle differenti civiltà approdate in Sicilia. Ci ha commosso con aneddoti, racconti e tante belle parole. Grazie Virginia del ricordo che ci lasci di questa terra bellissima! Enchanting place full of history. A true earthly paradise with plants of all kinds. The aloes in bloom are beautiful. I recommend visiting the island and the museum with the guide Virginia Aloisi, a true lover of her land. He thrilled us for two hours with the history of the different civilizations that landed in Sicily. He moved us with anecdotes, stories and many beautiful words. Thanks Virginia for the memory you leave us of this beautiful land!
