The others, although strangely more publicized, are unfortunately poorly maintained and you may be disappointed. The Villa Sant&#8217;Isidoro de Cordova was instead restored and enhanced by the heirs, who made this magnificent piece of history available to the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is possible to visit it with a guide and admire the furnishings, the toys of the time, the ancient clothes, the eighteenth-century decorations of the rooms, the jewels, in short, there is really a lot to see. There is also a beautiful garden, although the exterior of the building is not as well cared for as the interior. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tip from Topsecretsicily:<\/strong> If you are looking for accommodation <a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/dealspage.html?aid=8076273\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">on this page<\/a> you will find several discounted offers.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"990\" src=\"https:\/\/topsecretsicily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/3964_villa-sant-isidoro-de-cordoba.jpg\" alt=\"Villa Sant\u00b4Isidoro - Bagheria\" class=\"wp-image-5993\" srcset=\"https:\/\/topsecretsicily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/3964_villa-sant-isidoro-de-cordoba.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/topsecretsicily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/3964_villa-sant-isidoro-de-cordoba-300x248.jpg 300w, https:\/\/topsecretsicily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/3964_villa-sant-isidoro-de-cordoba-1024x845.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/topsecretsicily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/3964_villa-sant-isidoro-de-cordoba-768x634.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Facciata villa &#8211; Picture of<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fondoambiente.it\/luoghi\/villa-sant-isidoro-de-cordoba\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Fondoambiente.it<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!1m18!1m12!1m3!1d3139.816180779416!2d13.499075515326947!3d38.09794227970192!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x1319e24bb0f20187%3A0xfc08571081b14742!2sVilla%20Sant%E2%80%99Isidoro%20De%20Cordova!5e0!3m2!1sit!2sde!4v1606839393384!5m2!1sit!2sde\" width=\"999\" height=\"450\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:0;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" aria-hidden=\"false\" tabindex=\"0\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-prodotti-tipici-di-bagheria\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Typical_products_of_Bagheria\"><\/span>Typical products of Bagheria<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Bagheria is part of the province of Palermo.
