Ragusa is known for some great local red wines and its wonderful cheese, a creamy, doughy, flavorful version of caciocavallo, made by hand every step of the way. It's a modern city with a beautiful old town called Ibla, which was completely rebuilt after the devastating earthquake of 1693. A tumble of buildings perched on a hilltop and suspended between a deep ravine and a sloping valley, Ibla's tiny squares and narrow lanes make for pleasant meandering.
