The Roman Villa of Casignana is a must see on anyone’s bucket list of things to do in southern Italy. It is along the Statale 106, the state route which runs along the Calabrian Ionian coast. The area is under the supervision of Giuseppe Romeo, who enables visitors to see the Villa and admire its precious ruins at a very close distance. All of the works have been covered to protect them from the elements, but this also allows you to stroll around in comfort even in the middle of summer. A tunnel has been built which connects the mountain side area with the seaside complex. Mosaics showing four feminine figures riding monsters in the shape of a lion,a tiger, a horse and a bull, are rich in colour and clarity. The unearthed evidence, the precious marbles, painted stuccos and mosaics all add up to lavishly decorated interiors suggesting that this Roman Villa housed royalty, making it a historically significant site and a must see for all visitors to this area.
