The southeastern part of Sicily is cut off by the Monti Iblei, which form a natural defence of the territory of Ragusa. The villages crowning the mountainsides, dotted about on the slopes and in the forests, have kept their rural appearance, and remain closely tied to the earth, which for centuries ensured their subsistence. Find out about local customs in Buscemi (I Luoghi del Lavoro Contadino), where eight different sites retrace the life and work of the people of the Hyblaean Mountains.
