2. One of Italy’s most majestic sights lies, on the edge of a flat coastal plain, Paestum is a major ancient Greek city on the coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea in Magna Graecia. After its foundation by Greek colonists under the name of Poseidonia it was eventually conquered by the Lucanians and later by the Romans. The Lucanians renamed it to Paistos and in turn the Romans gave the city its current name. The ruins of Paestum are notable for their three ancient Greek temples, dating back to the 6th century BC, which are in a very good state of preservation. Paestum is home to three magnificent Doric temples, which are thought to be dedicated to the city's namesake Poseidon (known to the Romans as Neptune), Hera and Ceres. The temples of Neptune and Hera are located next to each other at the Southern end of the site, while the smaller Temple of Ceres is at the Northern end.

About Neapel

Leidenschaftlich und chaotisch unter dem Vesuv: Neapel ist die Heimat der Pizza und das Tor nach Pompeji, Capri und zur Amalfiküste.

Das historische Zentrum, ein dichtes Straßenraster, das die alten Griechen anlegten, ist eine Welt aus Kirchen, Straßenschreinen und zwischen Balkonen gespannter Wäsche. Spaccanapoli schneidet schnurgerade hindurch, die Via San Gregorio Armeno ist gesäumt von Krippenwerkstätten, und die Cappella Sansevero birgt den erstaunlichen Verschleierten Christus. Unterirdisch enthüllen Tunnel und Zisternen die griechische und römische Stadt darunter.

Top-ranked sights in Neapel: Mt. Vesuvius (Monte Vesuvio), Via dei Tribunali, Naples Historic Center (Napoli Centro Storico).
