GREEK RUINS
Long before the Romans took hold, Greek sandals stomped around this turf. Pay tribute to
the power and elegance of
Magna Graecia
(Greater Greece) at the stoic temples of Paes-
tum and the bucolic ruins of Velia.
WILD PLACES
Deep, dark woods, exhilarating rapids, and cathedral-like caves littered with early human
history: the Parco Nazionale del Cilento and Vallo di Diano is one of the country's
biggest, wildest natural playgrounds.
