The area of the Ursino Castle, where the apartment is located, is the heart of the city. The old folk tradition, proximity to the historic fish market, the Baroque context, make it fascinating. The location is central, and from here you can visit all the major tourist and historical sites of the city: GRCO theater, Roman theater, Roman baths, underground city, opera house, museum, museum of the diocese.
