Calabria a land of great opposites,
where the clear blue Tyrrhenian sea
and it's rugged coast are only few
minutes drive away from the fresh mountains
and green hill
tops.
Visit
the picturesque villages, that lay
in a relaxing silence on the rocks, like
Buonvicino,
Grisolia,
Maierà,
with their small alley-ways, piazzas and
strategic points where to admire breathtaking
panoramas of the region.
Take
a glance at the great sceneries and
views, from strategic points like
Maratea, that overlooks part
of the most beautiful rugged coast of the
"Gulf of Policastro"... you'll
never want to leave!
Explore the history and art
that towns like Papasidero,
Cirella
and Diamante
have preserved for years and years ... some
remains date back to the Palaeolithic
period .
All
this... and the warm and welcoming ways of life of the southern Italians will
make you feel "at home" ... and
why not... sit and unwind with them, having
a round at "briscola" (southern
Italian card game), under the porch of the
town bar, watching life go on in a cheery
and calm mode.
"Cirella Vecchia",
the historical part
hosts the rests of a Church
and Castle that
still show frescoes of
the 15th century
and the Mausoleum
that is said to date back
to the Roman Imperial
Period.
Also
known as the "Gem
of the Mediterranean",
enjoys a long
promenade facing
the clear blue sea and
the port. It's historical
centre, better known
as "Diamante Vecchia",
is characteristic for
it's small alleyways and
hosts over 130 murales
painted on the walls of
the houses, wooden statues of the
18th century and the
Mother church.
Suggested
time of visit to Cirella
and Diamante: Half a Day
Two Medieval boroughs that lay
silently on the mountains only
few hundreds of metres away
from each other but dramatically
separated by a deep ravine.
Maierà's
feudal manor is situated
at the top of the town and Grisolia's
"Madonna delle Grazie"
Church, houses rests of the 15th and 18th century.
This small village appears almost
unexpectedly, between the green
mountains and hill tops. It
is particular in twisted alleyways
that intercept each other and
hosts the ancient Mother
Church. The town's piazza
houses a recently built Gazebo
where you can admire a breathtaking
view of the high green mountains
that cross each other creating
a natural frame for the Tyrrhenian
that can be spotted in the distance.
Suggested
time of visit to Grisolia:
Half a Day.
Suggested
time of visit to Maierà
and Buonvicino: Half a Day
Lying in a wild and coarse scenery
between the mountains thickly
overgrown with woods and dotted
with rocky peaks, Papasidero
hosts a prehistoric site,
"Riparo del Romito",
destination of many visitors.
This site houses the "Grotta
del Romito" a grotto
that preserves an engravement
of the Palaeolithic and
many other remains such as animal
rests, pieces of crockery and
skeletons of that period. Papasidero
also hosts a Monastery,
and various churches that house
frescoes and remains
of 14th and 17th centuries.
This ancient town perched in
a strategic position over one
of the most beautiful parts
of the Gulf of Policastro,
overlooks the rugged coast
and the clear blue Tyrrhenian.
It hosts a 22 metre tall statue
of Christ, made out of marble,
second only to the one in Rio
de Janeiro. Visit the Port,
"S.Biagio" Sanctuary
and the remains of "old"
Maratea.
