A favorite of the ancient Romans, Campania is
beautiful inside and out. You will fall in love
with its fertile landscapes and perpetual springs,
as well as the art and aromas of its tables.
Modern travelers can still experience all that
the Romans loved about Campania, via a range
of natural, artistic, archeological and culinary
tours organized by Well Arranged Travel.
Campania claims some of the most charming places
in Italy, including Vesuvius, the towering volcano
alive with lush vegetation; and the Amalfi Coast
and the Sorrento Peninsula, with their world-famous
coastal towns, thermal spas and fishing villages. The
coastline also boasts such hip hangouts as Positano,
the setting of the 1960s cult classic, La Dolce
Vita; and Ravello, a favorite haunt of such
artists and intellectuals as Greta Garbo and
Richard Wagner.
You must also visit Naples to understand the
essence of this region. This lively, friendly,
sunny city is full of artistic and cultural gems,
with its theaters and museums, monuments and
palaces, and quaint alleys and coffee shops.
Naples sums up the region’s past, and offers
living proof of the populations that ruled this
area over the centuries, from the Anjou dynasty
to the Bourbons.
Most discussions of Campania food starts and ends with pizza, invented by a Neapolitan
cook at the end of the 19th century. “True” pizza is made using two typical Campania
products: San Marzano tomatoes and Fiordilatte mozzarella. Other tasty seafood
dishes are prepared along the coast and on the islands, such as the mussel dish pepata
di cozze. Limoncello di Capri, a liqueur made from lemons grown
on its namesake island, is a great finale to any meal – and your stay in Campania. |
