The Park of San Giuseppe ‘U Timpuni represents the true “green lung” in the heart of Modica’s historic centre, an oasis of peace and beauty set amidst the evocative alleyways of Ragusa’s Baroque. Located in a formerly abandoned area, it is now a virtuous example of urban and environmental regeneration. It houses an amphitheatre that hosts cultural events and jazz concerts, a well-equipped dog area and a Mediterranean scrub grove, the core of the CO₂Zero project promoted by ChocoModica, thanks to which 80 native trees were planted in 2019 to help reduce emissions. In March 2024, the park was further enriched with the inauguration of the Garden of the Righteous, where two trees were dedicated to Nicholas Winton and Felicia Impastato, witnesses of courage and memory. Walking along its paths and sitting on the benches is an immersive experience of nature, civic engagement and shared culture.

The “I Timpi” Exotic Garden is a secret green oasis nestled in the heart of the Casale district, a stone’s throw from Modica’s historic centre. Arranged on a natural terrace, it is a harmonious combination of Mediterranean vegetation and exotic plants, including over 40 species of bamboo from all over the world, including the precious Bambusa vulgaris “Wamin”. Created at the behest of Michelangelo Ferlanti and continued by his grandson Napolitano, the garden is now managed by the Movimento Azzurro, which opens it up to visits by appointment, educational workshops, sunset concerts and sensory trails. It offers an evocative and relaxing view of the city, representing an extraordinary combination of nature, environmental culture and urban regeneration. The “I Timpi” Garden is a green, usable, educational lung and symbol of sustainable regeneration. It is an unmissable stop for those seeking a different experience, immersed in greenery and contemplation, a stone’s throw from the Baroque heart of Modica.

Quarry of “Servi” is an evocative natural gorge nestled in the Monti Iblei, modelled over the millennia by the Tellesimo torrent, which has carved its bottom, creating spectacular landscapes. It lies on the border between the territories of Modica and Rosolini and is distinguished by its typically Mediterranean lush vegetation, limestone cliffs and a still unspoilt environment where nature reigns supreme. This fascinating place preserves important archaeological evidence dating back to the Bronze Age, including dolmens, cave tombs and remains attributed to the Castelluccio culture, attesting to the ancient human presence in this area. Of particular note is the Gorgo della Campana, an evocative natural cavity rich in water and legend. Cava dei Servi is today a privileged destination for hikers, scholars, naturalists and archaeology enthusiasts, who can enjoy a unique experience here in contact with the history and landscape of the Hyblean mountains.
