A romantic city, the pearl of the Tyrrhenian Sea, located in the province of Potenza. To discover for its territory, the beaches, the remains of an ancient past. On its mountains you will find ideal paths for walking and trekking, sea caves and isolated beaches for sea lovers. Dozens and dozens of kilometers of jagged cliffs with caves and stacks. It is known as the city of 44 churches and dominating the coast is Christ the Redeemer, a 22-meter statue on the top of Monte San Biagio, built in 1965 by Bruno Innocenti, a Florentine sculptor. Here you will also find the ruins of the ancient city and the remains of its Castle, with its houses, to walk directly into history. The village of the new city is a tangle of narrow streets and alleys, colorful houses and elegant noble palaces. In the center, the Church of the Annunziata, with the spectacular Moorish bell tower. A land of unspoiled nature, with parks and reserves, and its Cave of Wonders. A city rich in history and colors and hospitality.
