The Valley of Tombs

To locate this ancient cemetery in Sicily, Italy, you’ve got to look up. Dating back over 3,000 years, the cemetery of Necropoli di Pantalica has more than 5,000 tombs carved into a limestone rock face. The tombs are built like artificial caves, and are completely untouched by infrastructure. Now listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, a walk through this valley is a reflective trip back in time.
