Naples, which is the capital of Campania, has its own history, character and melody. The city is situated by one of the most beautiful bays in the Mediterranean Sea, and there is a striking contrast between sunny piazzas and dark narrow streets, fine Baroque churches and futuristic skyscrapers.
Caserta is a charming city with The Reggia di Caserta (Royal Palace), designed by Vanvitelli, with its Park and English Garden, was built in the mid 18th century on commission of the king of Naples, who wanted it to rival the Palace of Versailles.
Benevento has a long and important history and is, among others, known for its beautiful triumphal arch which was built under the emperor Trajan.
Salerno in the south is beautifully located to the sea. Large parts of the city were exposed to heavy bombardments during World War II, which is why parts of the city are of a more modern style.

The Living Nativity.
The living Nativity of St. Saviour is a show that for almost 20 years has held forth in the festive scene equense earth, and certainly best remembered, - than others. The first performance, was released in December 1982, thanks to the spontaneous emergence of a youth group curated and coordinated by Ms Titina Di Palma, who later became a fact of the event organizers of all the years following. It was a reproduction of the Nativity and the Adoration of the Magi simply reproduced in the square outside the church. A few key scenes and characters. Sore to the public liked, and it is enough as an idea for something bigger. And in fact in later editions there has always been greater participation by the people of San Salvatore - adults and kids-organization of the event, and not only thanks to the active participation of Salvatore Salvatore Ferraro and Starace. Many more people wanted to participate, take part in this passion play. It was decided to widen and lengthen the path on which they arranged the scenes. Forty / fifty scenes unfolded along the alleys of the village, which grew around a crib. In the years that were designed amazingly realistic backgrounds. Ms Titin recalled that preparations began at least two months before, because everything was finished in time: costumes, tools, set designs. Countless nights spent working in the houses or in cellars. Again this year, has revived the desire to restart the organizers of the nativity scene. A positive event: for the community, but also a way to explore an area of the Sorrento peninsula, connected, perhaps, even the good old days. (Borgo San Salvatore)

From the moment Flora.and Claudio met us with the keys to the villa we knew that we had chosen well. the villa is very well appointed and tastefully decorated. We were travelling with our young children and elderly mother from Australia to experience the sites and sounds of Italy just before Christmas. Flora had thoughtfully decorated the villa for the festive season and even baked traditional Italian biscuits for us all to enjoy. The children were well catered for with things to keep them entertained. The villa is very well located just a short walk into Vico and any easy drive down the Amalfi coast and all it has to offer. The owners left plenty of information as to things to do in the local area, as well as plenty of personal suggestions as to things the family might enjoy,including some of the best local restaurants to eat in. We will definitely be back for another holiday in Vico Equense in Villa Flora Response: Thank you very much for your beautiful feedback. It was an honor to have you and your family, as Villa Flora Guests and we really hope to meet you again, in the future. |
