Palazzo dell'Orologio is the striking clock-towered palace on Piazza Archimede in Ortigia—classic Sicilian Baroque façades, ornate clock face and lively square scenes. Photograph the façade against sunrise/sunset light and the piazza activity. No entry needed for exterior shots; Ortigia is pedestrianised with limited parking — use nearby lots. Best light: golden hour and blue hour; weekdays are quieter. Local festivals can add atmosphere.
