il Cilento
Ancient cradle of civilization, home of Parmenide's Eleatic School which gave an extraordinary impetus to the development of Western philosophical thought. Theater of myths lost in the mists of time, where Ulysses encountered the Sirens and Palinuro was shipwrecked. Uncontaminated nature where the Golden eagle flies and Sea Daffodils blossom. This the Cilento, an incomparable heritage of nature, art, history and legend which Unesco has added to its World Heritage List. The Parco Nazionale del Cilento e del Vallo di Diano guards and protects the area so that it remains intact and can be used by the widest number of visitors who will be pleasantly surprised by its many sights.
