I was fortunate enough to spend two years living near Etna and she's a wonderful thing to see every day. I loved going up to the craters and seeing the lava flows.

That must have such an amazing experience loving next to this giant 🙏🏼 I would do the same I’d I ever lived next to Etna!

Silly plants growing on top of a volcano. It's like those silly humans building beachfront property in Miami!

Brilliant picture though.

I was just planning a vacation in Sicily, going to do a guided tour up there, certainly looking forward to it.

This is a super specific reference but this looks like the last scene from fantasia 2000.

For those who don't know do note that this is an ancient secondary crater, the main active craters are higher up and you can't see them in this picture.

Forget the plants, in Naples there’s thousands of illegal homes built on the Vesuvio lol

Went there last summer after our wedding and it was amazing. Hiking on the Etna is easily the most memorable thing ive ever done, so beautifull.

Did it last summer, was great! One more tip, get a decent winery tour, we had a private one that drove us to 3 of those and the price really was not that bad for all the wine, food and beautifull scenery you'll get. Easily the 2 most memorable things ive ever done.
