Bosco di Monte Ceraulo a Mascalucia, una chiusura ingiustificata che danneggia la comunità

Avevamo gioito qualche anno fa della apertura al pubblico, a Mascalucia, del Bosco di Monte Ceraulo. Unica testimonianza dell’antico Bosco Etneo a bassa quota nel versante meridionale del vulcano, con un’area di ben 17 ettari e una rigogliosa vegetazione di macchia mediterranea.

La riapertura, avvenuta il 25 aprile 2022, si realizzava grazie ad un Patto di Collaborazione tra […]

This photo shows the traditional Sicilian building method with Etna’s basalt lava. You will see this everywhere on the east coast of the island. In modern buildings, the basalt is usually cut and finished to a high polish and used as trim for poured-in-place concrete structures with terracotta black inner walls. Our family’s kitchen is fitted with lovely basalt lava counters matched with traditional Sicilian tiles. The muratore (masons), literally translated as wall builders, were skilled craftsmen who could take randomly shaped rock and make beautiful, strong, structures.
