The Campania region
Cava represents the gate of Amalfitan Coast, from which it’s separated by a one miles verdant road.
Cava is a star-shaped town for its distintive urban stucture. In fact, it is characterized by a central city, the Borgo, and by more twenty hamlets which form a kind of crown to the Borgo. The origins date back to the years following the Abbey foundation in 1080.
The Borgo with its porticoes and the imposing noble mansions, characteristic sign of economical and political power, and the hamlets, still keep a lot of interesting heritages of their past made of arts, crafts and commercial activities for which Cava was rightly famous and appreciated.
The Borgo is not only arts, history and culture. It’s also night and day life; numerous stores, american bars, restaurants and pubs make this street a place to enjoy and to amuse, among lights and silent places which give to the ancient Borgo a mysterious and fancy atmosphere.
The particular position of town offers to visitors the possibility to reach many famous centres of storic interest, cultural and touristic place with easy link railroad and railsea and mainroad.
Amalfi Coast area
In Campania, take all the time you can. Stop for a long lunch and a longer dinner to enjoy every mouthful of the stupendous local cuisine. Try the baked, stuffed artichokes (Carciofi ripeni all napoletana), dried figs on sticks (sproccolati) or the mouth-watering pizza.
You'll be offered a wide selection of wines, but don't leave without trying a cold glass of limoncello, a local digestif made from lemons. There are many social, historical and cultural highlights in Campania, including the ruins of Pompeii and Herculaneum, both in the shadows of Mount Vesuvius.
