Piazza Regina Margherita in Marzamemi, part of the municipality of Pachino, at blue hour in the last days of August. The village took its present form in 1752, when Prince Nicolaci di Villadorata built the manor house, the church and the fishermen's cottages that still frame this square. / Photo credit: original photo by pixelshop – stock.adobe.com edited with ai.
