Villa Cimbrone Gardens

Reviewed By lassie64

possibly the nicest thing to do whilst up in ravello. entrance is 7 euros pp and you get to walk around the large gardens and take in the flowers and statues and sculptures etc. best bit is the infinity terrace with amazing views over the amalfi coastline both ways.

Villa Rufolo

Reviewed By emullanseman - Santa Cruz, United States

If you are history buff who takes pleasure in experiencing an antiquity cleansed, purified and brought back to life make your way to Villa Rufalo. Scottish Industrialist, Francis Neville restored the ruins of a former hotel with more than 350 rooms and truly made it shine. The setting is iconic and Overlooks the sea below. Imagine Moorish courtyards, gorgeous gardens, Sicilian and Norman architecture and then envision Richard Wagner walking the grounds inspiring the creation of glorious symphonies. Drink it in, drink it in!

Archaeological Park of Paestum

Founded by Greek colonists, the ancient city of Poseidonia dates from 600 B.C. It was abandoned for centuries, but the remarkably well-preserved Greek temples were excavated in the mid-18th century.

Reviewed By 928massimom - Monza, Italy

3 large Greek temples still standing, a walled Greek and Roman city, absolutely incredible. So much less publicised than other places like Pompeii but no less impressive. The park is almost empty and you can just take your time and explore. The museum opposite is very interesting but prepare for a 30-40 minute wait due to covid distancing. Massive (patronising) tip: if you're going in the summer, bring a bottle of water with you into the park ????

Museo della Carta

Reviewed By Beejtronic - Halifax, Canada

I know, I know. A paper museum? But this spot is truly fascinating! The paper mill has been operating since the 13th century and the tour gives you a great overview of the techniques used to make paper from that time onward- from the manual cotton presses to the water-powered pulp mills to the electric mills of more modern times. What's more, you can actually see demonstrations of these massive devices as they would have been used centuries ago! Our tour guide switched seamlessly between English and Italian and we had no problems following the demonstrations. We even got a free paper sample at the end, and the gift shop has some lovely items, including pressed flowers, notebooks and personalized wax seals. The surrounding neighbourhood is quite picturesque, as well, and it's worth a jog up the road from the marina.

Giardino della Minerva

In the heart of the Medieval town of Salerno, at the back of Fusandola torrent and of the old Mediaval walls, a terraced fenced orchard is situated. In it the remains of a glorious and rich history can be still seen: it is the so called Minerva’s Garden. This structure develops along the orchard line which from the Town Villa gardens goes up to the Medieval Castle. Minerva’s Garden is exactly situated in the middle of this ideal itinerary and it is certainly the most interesting example of orchard for the art-historical valuesit represents.What is today really striking for any visitor – thanks to a restoration work completed in September 2000 - is an interesting variety of eighteenth century style elements.Among these the most characteristic one is a long staircase emphasized by cross plan pilasters, with stucco decorations supporting a pergola. The staircase, linking and evidently framing the different levels of the garden, ends up to a belvedere-terrace which is also covered with a pergola, it is built on the old walls and allows a wide and privileged view of the sea including the port, the historical centre of the town and the hills.The water system, composed of basins and fountains, one of them for each terrace, with decorations made from calcareous concretions, shows the presence of abundant water sources which, suitably canalized have over centuries allowed – besides other uses – the cultivation of plots of land. This site is characterized by a special microclimate, fostered by a poor influence of north winds and by a favourable exposure, which still today allows the cultivation and spontaneous propagation of plant species needing a particularly moist and warm climate.Since the twelfth century Silvatico family had owned these places, one of its members, Matteo, physician of the Salernitan School of Medicine, between the thirteenth and fourteenth century, distinguished himself as big expert of the plants used for producing remedies. His work called Opus pandectarum medicinae, is a precious collection of information about semplici, that is on parts of plants which were used for producing remedies.In fact, after a careful examination of the historical documents and sources, scholars have proved the existence in the area of the Medieval town of Salerno, of a garden called giardino dei semplici, (garden from which parts of plants were extracted) founded in the first twenty years of 1300 by the Salernitan physician and botanist Matteo Silvatico, for being used by the scholars of the Medical School. In this space of an extraordinary cultural value, which can be today identified just in the area of Minerva’s Garden, the plants from which active principles used for a therapeutic purpose were extracted, were cultivated;besides this, in this place a real didactic activity was carried out in order to show the students of the Medical school the plants with their names and their characteristics (ostensio simplicium).This background testifies that the garden, situated in the area of the old site of the hortus sanitatis of the Salernitan Medical School, can be considered the oldest botanic garden linked to a school of medicine.

Levels of beautiful gardens, ancient medicinal plants topped off with a fabulous view of Salerno and the coast. There is a cafe but in late May when we visited it was not open. There were only three other people in the gardens during our visit. Recommend

Set in the rather pleasant town of Agropoli, this quaint classic Italian medieval castle with stunning views is worth the climb up the steps.
