Travel video about destination Campania in
Italy.
Campania was once a centre of the ancient world in the
Mediterranean and features gorgeous coastlines, romantic villages, paradisiacal islands and is a true cradle of
European culture.
Napoli is the capital of Campania. The
Centro Storico Monumentale is located around the harbour.
The Piazza Del Plebiscito embodies both grandeur and vastness and on one side of the square is the Chiesa
San Francesco Di
Paola, a church of triumph that was built by
Ferdinand in 1815 following the return of the
Bourbons and was modelled on the
Pantheon of Rome. Measuring four square kilometres,
Procida is the smallest island off
Naples and is densely populated, with a long history. The sight of the picturesque
Marina Grande at the Cattolico
Ferry Port typifies relaxed island life and is where religious seamen built churches and houses up steep slopes to the
Old Town of
Terra Murata, the ‘walled land’.
Ischia, the island of
Titan Tiphoios, is the largest of the three islands in the Gulf Of Naples, each one now being a popular tourist destination. Both Ischia
Porto and Ischia
Ponte appear to have developed together and contain the palazzi of the rich and fine
Baroque churches.
The village of Ponte is still home to fishermen who offer their tasty daily catch on the pier.
Vesuvius is a place of ancient myth and catastrophe. A bizarre landscape of craters, breathing out mysterious wisps of smoke and since early times, an active volcano that last erupted in
1944. Its highly explosive potential, and nearby large population, make it the most dangerous volcanic threat in
Europe.
Amalfi, beating heart of the coast, is today a world famous resort squeezed into the mouth of a valley of paper mills. A land where lemon trees blossom and in which both past and present merge into a unique cultural landscape, Campania is a paradise of gods and nature!
