Definitely one of the most beautiful squares in Italy sent on June 11, 2017 (10:11) by Rosario Cafiso. 122 comments, 2551 views. [retina]

Ragusa Ibla Il progetto di Rosario Gagliardi, di cui si conservano le tavole originali, è caratterizzato dalla monumentale facciata a torre che ingloba il campanile nel prospetto e termina con una cuspide a bulbo, richiamando i tabernacoli lignei, seicenteschi, delle chiese cappuccine. La collocazione della chiesa al termine di un'alta scalinata e la posizione obliqua rispetto alla piazza sottostante accentuano l'imponenza e gli effetti plastici, creati da una lieve convessità del partito centrale e dalla presenza delle colonne libere. Due coppie di volute fanno da raccordo tra i diversi livelli ospitando, rispettivamente, le statue di San Giorgio e San Giacomo in basso, e quelle di San Pietro e San Paolo in alto. Sulla cuspide, sotto la croce, si legge la data 1775, che indica la conclusione dei lavori della facciata. Nel primo ordine del partito centrale si apre un grande portale con cornice mistilinea, ricca di fregi e rilievi a motivi vegetali, mentre le porte lignee hanno una preziosa decorazione scultorea, in sei riquadri, con la raffigurazione di episodi del martirio di San Giorgio, opera dell'intagliatore palermitano Vincenzo Fiorello, che li realizzò nel 1793.

Beautiful Ibla, and this square impresses with the scenery of the church that closes it on one of the short sides and i was struck by an uphill square, a kind of proscenium to the facade of St. George that then stands out on its beautiful staircase.
You are right in claiming to be one of the most beautiful squares in Italy, although its shape, narrow and long, gave me more the idea of a wide street than a square, but it is the beating heart of Ibla, with its premises and palaces that present you.
Beautiful shot
Hello

Your Ragusa is really beautiful I have excellent memories of December 2018, too bad we did not meet even if it was touched and escape to Ragusa of a day with organized trip.
A hug to you
Alessandro
