Catania is the second largest city in Sicily, Italy, after Palermo. It is an important industrial and transportation centre, connected by rail with Palermo, Messina, and Syracuse. It is the main airport in Sicily, fifth in Italy, and one of the busiest ports in Italy. Catania is located on Sicily's east coast, facing the Ionian Sea, south of the active volcano, Mount Etna.
The city was founded in 729 BC by Chalcidian Greeks and passed by multiple geologic catastrophes. In 1169, the city was almost completely destroyed by a catastrophic earthquake. A major eruption of the volcano, Mount Etna, in 1669, made the city almost swamped by the lava. In 1693, Catania suffered a great destruction caused by an earthquake. Located on the Ionian seacoast, Catania is well-known for its fine beaches nearby. Its location at the base of the Mount Etna, makes the city a popular winter resort.
