- Paestum - Paestum is an ancient city of Magna Graecia situated in Campania, renowned for its remarkable Doric temples, which are among the best preserved globally. Established by Greek settlers around the 7th century B.C. as Poseidonia, the city later became a Roman colony while retaining many Greek features.
- Archaeological Park of Paestum - The archaeological area features three main temples dedicated to the Olympian deities, showcasing an extraordinary example of Greek architecture:
Temple of Hera (Basilica) - Constructed around 550 BC, it is the oldest of the three and dedicated to Hera, the goddess of marriage and family.
Temple of Neptune - Dating back to 460 BC, it is the best preserved and is considered a masterpiece of Doric architecture.
Temple of Athena (or Ceres) - Built around 500 BC, it presents an intriguing blend of Doric and Ionic styles.
In addition to the temples, Paestum also features an archaeological area with remnants of walls, a Roman forum, and a significant museum that houses frescoes, vases, and the renowned Tomb of the Diver, the only known example of Greek funerary painting with a figurative scene. The three Doric temples and the museum of Paestum are highlights.
- Paestum - The Paestum area is famous for its buffalo mozzarella production, with several outstanding farms. Here are some of the most notable:
Tenuta Vannulo: Established in 1907, Vannulo is an organic farm that merges tradition with innovation. Buffaloes are raised in a nurturing environment, with ample space and even classical music. The buffalo mozzarella produced here is celebrated for its exceptional quality. The estate offers guided tours by appointment, allowing visitors to explore the entire production process.
Azienda Agricola Tempio: Situated in Capaccio-Paestum, this farm respects local traditions while employing modern agricultural techniques. Besides producing buffalo mozzarella, the company operates a bistro where visitors can enjoy typical dishes made from their fresh products.
