Seeing the ugly graffiti everywhere ☹️. I wish people had more respect, especially for places like Catania. So rich in history and beautiful architecture.
I agree S. Picone. Graffiti should stop and people should be more conscious about it..
Where are the schools?
I'm originally from Catania and I usually go back once a year to visit my family but unfortunately this year I wasn't able to go due to covid. I'm terribly home sick but this wonderful video helped me feeling a little closer to my beautiful city. Thank you 😊
Ciao Lucia, I'm glad the video helped out a bit. :) How'd I do? This was my first time visiting Catania.
Ciao Lucia sono Enzo , come stai? Sei sempre a Londra? Io niente sempre alla Conad al banco salumeria. Si tira a campare. Mio zio Totino quello della carne di cavallo a piazza Dante ha chiuso. Mio cugino Gnazio sempre lì all'edicola lavora. Tu che si dice la a Londra? Ti saluta mia sorella Rosina, che si è sposata e ora c'ha 4 figli. Ciao fatti sentire ogni tanto. Tante cose
instaBlaster.
Grazie!
Hope you were able to go back!
Big city with the extremelly good ancient remains, wonderfull
@vittorio messina WONDERFULL
It appears I am walking through the city streets. This should be the feeling what one should get from a walking tour. The pause and the genuine turns are exceptional .
Ho visto con piacere il video su Catania. Sono un catanese DOC! Nato, cresciuto e pasciuto in questa città che amo. Ho lavorato per quasi 30 anni al Comune di Catania, alla Direzione Cultura - Assessorato alla Cultura, che nell'ultimo decennio ha come sede il "Palazzo della Cultura" (ex convento di San Placido). Ho apprezzato anche le didascalie dei vari luoghi e monumenti. Certo il video non poteva essere esaustivo, ma si vede tanto. Mi dispiace immensamente per tutti quei graffiti che deturpano anche i luoghi più belli ed importanti della città. Purtroppo non è così semplice debellare questo fenomeno di inciviltà. Tante volte come amministrazione siamo intervenuti per ripulire dai graffiti (anche via Crociferi), ma l'educazione e la civiltà non è facile farla attecchire. Per colpa di pochi questa città viene "violentata" sistematicamente. Il vandalismo è una vera piaga insieme alla strafottenza di tanti. La corruzione non c'entra nulla. Comunque grazie per questo bellissimo video sul centro storico della mia città che amo da sempre.
Bella Italia 🇮🇹, love from Greece 🇬🇷
After watching your vids for almost 5 hours, I feel if I were being in Italy ,remembering tastes , smells , wonderful colours and friendly feelings.... Thank you so much Prowalk
5 hours! lol..that is great. :) I'm glad you're enjoying the videos. They have been fun to make. Glad they remind you of your own travels.
I am due to arrive to catania on 30.11 2021. I am 62 years old. Me and my husband are looking for a local person to show us catnia. Who is ready to do it for some money?
Windows,,,,
That’s my city .... I love it and sometimes I hate it at the same time ... but I mostly love it and despite having lived abroad for several years I always felt the need to comeback ... it’s home .
I hope you enjoyed the video. This was my first time visiting Catania. I really enjoyed exploring it on my ebike.
@@ProWalks yeah you made it well . Catania had her best years in the late 90s early 2000 ... Now it is kind of not as good as it used to be
I'm utterly mesmerized by the rich cultural tapestry of Catania showcased in this video. The juxtaposition of ancient ruins with bustling modern life, the tantalizing array of fresh seafood at the markets, and the architectural marvels like the Carl V gate - it's like stepping into a living museum of Sicilian heritage.
I'll be going back to Catania in a couple weeks. Is there something different you'd like to see in the new walking tour?
Absolutely gorgeoust!!! Thanks for the great walk.
So much sadness ,but also so much beauty ,the romans were one of best builders ,Like any huge city. some plight, but so many building of beauty as well.
Hey David, yeah, the history there is pretty extensive and interesting.
Why sadness ? We are pretty happy people
@@salvolondon the graffiti
Oh my goodness this video is perfect! The quality is truly excellent. The way you capture everything, it makes me feel like I am actually there walking around the city with you real time. Thank you sincerely for bringing us this beauty as well as the fascinating information. You allow us to learn so much that we never knew before. GRAZIE MILLE!!
It's great, thank you for sharing, great footage, beautiful and meaningful images
Thanks!
Looks nice and clean.You can walk
Freely.Im impressed with the markets
Thanks YOU for showing that wonderful !city.
Beautiful the Greek and Roman Theater. The cathedral of Catania both those place were amazing!!
I like the way you present my city.
Unfortunately my city has many problems, it is one thing to visit a city, it is another to live and grow up there.
Catania could live on tourism, instead when I see that public transport is inefficient and a tourist is forced to rent a car to visit the towns near the city and even the island I get very angry.
Fortunately there is the good side to tell and I am extremely happy that you do.
Your videos are very useful for learning English.
Thank you very much
Hey, glad to hear you enjoyed the video. This was my first time visiting Catania. I really enjoyed it. I've been living in Napoli for the last 8 years and have often thought about filming a video about what it is like to live here as opposed to just visit as a tourist. I didn't want to film all the roads filled with garbage and post that up though. I want to try and present the good side of Naples..and Catania. THanks for watching!
Wonderful video, thank you. And thanks for taking the time to add all the interesting and useful information in the captions. I appreciate your work and the effort you've put in.
I'm Sicilian-Thai. Love from Thailand 😍❤
That's extremely rare.
thank you! your videos are fantastic!
To be perfectly honest, this is the first Italian city I've seen that has architecture that truly pleases the eyes. I've been to the Eternal city, Florence and Venice. While the public important buildings are very beautiful the homes for ordinary Italians are quite ugly which makes me sad for them. This is the first place that I feel is alive and beautiful despite the graffiti. Thank you for the tour
Hey, I'm glad you enjoyed it and found something unique about Catania. I enjoyed my time there and would like to go back.
Passeio incrível! Adorei Catania!
Thank you very much for bringing us this Wonderful video . I am watching it on 4K, I felt just like I am going through those roads. Superb. Thanks.
Such a wonderful video. Thank you for making it
Thank you so much 🌟🌟🌟
Wonderful views, it's my dream to go there 💫
Watching this from LI,NY, with my 89yr old Mother. She’s truly enjoying it, she said she know she won’t ever make it here but this walk is the closest thing. Thank you for sharing this beautiful place.
I am so glad to hear that. I am going back to Catania in a couple weeks to film some new walks. Is there anything new you'd like to see in the next Catania walking tour?
I had no idea that I’d like Catania as much as I do ! Thanks for the tour 👍
Very nice series, audio and 4K perfect. Thanks and keep up the good work....much success to you. A lot of hard work
Muchas gracias por compartir lugares tan bellos 😍 es como si yo hiciera esa caminata! 😉
Excelent work. I feel realy was here thankyou!!! From Argentina
Such a wonderful video. Thank you for making it. I visited for 2 days a couple of years ago and spent hours just walking like this. The city really appealed to me and this video brought it all flooding back.
Hey Steve, glad you enjoyed it. Yeah, I really liked Catania. I brought me e-bike with me and really had a good time riding all around the city.
Its nice to see Catania! We haven’t been able to visit since our arrival in June! Thanks!
Thanks for the tour!
Beautiful continent and what a great videography!
🍎👍 So cool to see these markets and hear the passionate voices. Going to come back to see the rest. The head of the sword fish at 10:30 at the Carl V gate was impressive.
Thanks for taking the time to put the annotations in as well Very interesting. -H
the roman theatre is really a powerful urban layer...good job!
Che bella Catania😍
Explore the wonders of this city through an amazing walking tour, have a great weekend👍 😍 🥰 💕
This was thoroughly enjoyable, as usual. I’m so glad you got to go to Sicily.
Yeah, it was a good trip. It was fun to drive around the entire island and explore. Thanks for watching.
@@ProWalks Would you ever do Ragusa/Modica/Trapani/Erice? or any of the mountain towns in the interior?
I have filmed walks of Agrigento, Ragusa, Trapani, Erice, San Vito, Corleone, Palermo and Tripi as well. I just have a full work schedule and don't have a lot of extra time to edit these walks. Anyway, videos will be coming up.
Surprisingly interesting city off the beaten path. Need to make a stop there some day. Thanks for the wonderful walk.
Yeah, I didn't know much about Catania...or Sicily really, before this trip. I really liked Catania though and enjoyed exploring it on my bike.
i love SICILY CITY ITALY . I AM FROM DHAKA CITY, BANGLADESH
Очень люблю гулять в таком формате. Где привлекло внимание, туда и иду. Катания великолепна! Спасибо большое. Очень понравилось!
Maravilhosa. Está é uma das viagens que gostaria de fazer!! Amei❤. Vou, nem que seja de avião..kkk. Pra El Calafate e Ushuaia.. e quem sabe né arrisco até Torres!! 😍 Felicidades.
Olá, fico feliz em saber que você gostou do vídeo. Estarei de volta a Catânia em 10 dias para filmar um novo passeio a pé. Deixe-me saber se há mais alguma coisa que você gostaria de ver.
Absolutely gorgeoust The beginning of the video is so beautiful! I really enjoyed it! Thanks
Da catanese ti faccio i miei più sinceri complimenti per la qualità del video.
Grazie!
This is beautiful😍
I lived in Motta S' Anastasia from approx. 1968-1970. My husband was stationed at the US Naval Air Facility at Sigonella, Sicily. I was 19 years old and had never been out of the United States. Sicily was an eye-opener for me and a most unforgettable experience. At that time, Sicily was about 50 years behind the rest of the world. This video has been very nostalgic for me!! And I particularly love the sound recording of this video! A couple of times I caught myself turning my head to follow the authentic sounds!!
Wow, 19 and overseas for the first in Sicily. That must have been a real culture shock. I didn't even realize how close Sig is to Catania. I just looked it up for the first time now. I should have stayed there during my trip. :) Did you get a chance to travel all over Sicily? This was my first trip down there but I'm hoping to go back again with my family. I'm glad you liked the video. I'll be posting up a Palermo walk here pretty soon.
Such a beautiful place. everyone needs to go check it out
City Wounderfull, I loves and beautiful.
Super meraviglie... Ogni suo angolo scoperte da fare cultura storia arte archeologia... Un atollo pieno di emozioni senza veli maschere ne fine... Ma emozioni infinite... L Italia e amore amare amarti vita... ❤️❤️😍👏👏🤗
I live in Catania, i think you made one of best video i saw so far about my city on youtube
Hey, thanks! I know I missed a lot but I guess that just gives me a reason to go back. :) glad you enjoyed it.
Why doesn't "your city" do something about the graffiti and the graffitist like heavy fines and jail time!
These videos are great!
Замечательная прогулка! ❤️
Grazie. Thanks for watching .
VÍDEO MARAVILHOSO, EU AMEI. MUITO OBRIGADA E PARABÉNS PELO SEU TRABALHO!!!
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching. I need to go back and film all the smaller towns next time.
Tierra de mis abuelos volveré 😍
Thank you for a great tour. My family comes from Catania. I need to visit where my family is from. After seeing this, I have to go there!
Hey, you are very welcome. Yes, that sounds like a great idea, and there is so much in the surrounding areas that obviously is not in this video. You could easily spend a vacation in that area. Taormina and Siracusa are both easy days trips from Catania. I drove from Catania to Taormina, filmed a tour, and then drove to Syracuse...walked all around in the evening and drove back to Catania all in the same day.
Thank you so much...for tour
Its a great video. I love it 💞...
Gracias por el paseo es un lugar muy importante grande para caminar todo el día 😊
Thanks for watching.
I am here now and appreciate your tour, how fortunate that you had clean streets, now there is so much litter and garbage. I am still enjoying my time but sad that people don’t take pride in their city.
Thanks a lot, wonderful place, great walking.
Thank you!
Very cute! Thanks for the tour!
You are very welcome. Thanks for watching!
Preciosas vistas😷🇪🇦
I'm not a big fan of big cities but I would visit catania!
I'm not sure how Catania is during a regular summer, but I found it to be a pretty chill city to explore. It was easy to walk around.
Catania isn't big at all. Everything is walking distance
@@Salvo_Solotraveler oh good! I just don't like big crowds
città meravigliosa
I am enjoyimg your Videos,Grazie
Vídeo maravilhoso. Obrigada!
Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed it.
Wonderful walk through the fish market and city. So much informative information. Even a recipe..no doubt sea urchin eggs will be hard to find here in Canada but we do have sea urchins. Will have to do this walk more than once.
Hey, glad you enjoyed the captions. For this walk, I asked a Catania tour guide to write them up for me.
Maravilloso ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hey, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I would like to go back and film a new walk there sometime soon.

Cameras should be installed to catch the graffiti perpetrators.
snitch cameras should be spray painted over to prevent the apprehension of street artists
@@9ramthebuffs9 tags are not art. get actually good, find someone willing to give their proprety to paint over, and do your art. You might even get payed.
here no China, here a cony of USA DemnCrazy ! so we live of Kaos,Crime, as in 1945 : Nato lives in 2100
Bellissima Catania
Va bene , molto grazie !!
спасибо за радость
In years to come, it will appear that 2020 was the year of the strange accessory known as the chin sling. Nice video, thank you.
Thank you so much for the Prowalk
You're very welcome. Thanks for watching.

Yeah, smooth video is a must if you want anyone to watch it.
Waiting for Messina !!!
Perfect - Bravo! . I got to see many things we missed on our visit .What is the name of the trees with the beautiful red blossoms ?
Cidade de Catania sesily muito linda um Show De Maravilhas Lindíssima Dê Mais Dê Mais Quê Deus Abençoe poderosamente todos vocês Aí Amém Fiquem todos Vocês Na Santa paz Dê Deus
Grazie
Love your tours! where are all the kids? An American sized pickup truck could never get down those streets!
Yeah, we have a Ford Explorer here that gets around alright but we have a smaller car too and there have been times I've been glad we weren't in the Explorer. I think the kids all come out in the evening. Everyone does for that matter. I ran into some groups of boys playing soccer..I mean football..in some back alleys when I was riding my bike around, but you're right, there weren't too many out. Thanks for watching!
Bellissima Catania.Si u me core
Great
Been there long time ago🥰
I'd like to go back sometime for sure.
Good video
