Here you can also enjoy a delicious granita or an ice cream at a historic restaurant.The next stop is an incredibly quiet place immersed in the city, where you can breathe an atmosphere of other times: the 17th-century Ancient Herbalist Pharmacy Sant'Anna dei Frati Carmelitani Scalzi. You will be explained many of the secrets of natural remedies that friars still prepare with the products from their gardens.This last experience is possible also thanks to the historic funicular that will take you to the Carmelite Convent.
