It is a small town of just 1100 inhabitants and is located 761 meters from the sea. It is <strong>located in a beautiful<\/strong> <strong>natural setting<\/strong>, like that of other towns such as <a href=\"https:\/\/topsecretsicily.com\/en\/province-of-ragusa\/things-to-do-in-scicli-visit-this-little-pearl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Scicli<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/topsecretsicily.com\/en\/province-of-ragusa\/things-to-do-in-ragusa-ibla-a-baroque-pearl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ragusa<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/topsecretsicily.com\/en\/province-of-ragusa\/things-to-do-in-modica-between-history-and-chocolate\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Modica<\/a>, among Mediterranean scrub and dry stone walls.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Its name seems to come from the Arabic Qal&#8217;at ab\u00ee \u015a\u00e2mah<\/strong> which can be understood as the man&#8217;s castle from the neo. Castle referring precisely to that of Buscemi and man from the mole is a likely reference to Muhammad. In fact, it is said that he had a large mole on his back.<strong> <\/strong>However, it was the Byzantines who founded Buscemi, of whom little trace remains.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1081\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/topsecretsicily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Buscemi_Syracuse_Italy.jpg?fit=800%2C451\" alt=\"What to see in Buscemi\" class=\"wp-image-2575\" style=\"width:880px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/topsecretsicily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Buscemi_Syracuse_Italy.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/topsecretsicily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Buscemi_Syracuse_Italy-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/topsecretsicily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Buscemi_Syracuse_Italy-1024x577.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/topsecretsicily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Buscemi_Syracuse_Italy-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/topsecretsicily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Buscemi_Syracuse_Italy-1536x865.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Buscemi-<em> Source:<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/w\/index.php?curid=38194559\" target=\"_blank\"> By trolvag<\/a> CC BY-SA 3.0<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<p>The town was later also conquered by the Arabs, who probably built the first castle, later modified by the Normans.<strong> The disastrous earthquake of 1693 destroyed the town, which was later rebuilt and gives us today many splendid examples of Baroque art<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-cosa-vedere-a-buscemi\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_to_see_in_Buscemi\"><\/span>What to see in Buscemi<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-alla-scoperta-dell-passato-itinerario-del-contadino\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Discovering_the_past_%E2%80%93_Farmers_itinerary\"><\/span>Discovering the past &#8211; Farmer&#8217;s itinerary<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n<p>I start immediately by talking about the Association for the Conservation of the Iblei Popular Culture.
