As you may know, one of the distinguishing features of many a city in the south of Italy is their mixture of many architectural styles, a sign of the passage of several different civilizations that came from other Mediterranean countries as well as from the Northern regions. Catanzaro, in Calabria region, is no exception: occupied, over the centuries, by the Greeks, then the Byzantines and the Normans, it unites all of these uniquely different souls together and tops them off with one more peculiarity, that is its location at the meeting point of two seas, the Tyrrhenian and the Ionian.
In fact, Catanzaro overlooks the sea, which is always there as a background for every stroll downtown. Nature in general is one of the central tenets of this Calabrian city: at its very center lies the Mediterranean Biodiversity Park, preserved by the old school of agriculture; within the park you can observe many local species of plants and animals while cycling or just walking.
Catanzaro will also suit the needs of art lovers: hubs such as the San Giovanni Monumental Complex or the MARCA museum indeed offer plenty of chances to admire paintings, sculptures and more from the ancient times to the modern days.

Walking across the streets of the city center you will also get a chance to see beautiful Norman and Neoclassical buildings and shop for local products.
