Just north in the Calabria region, Gioia Tauro is a must-stay spot for any Italian tourist.

Gioia Tauro may not be flush with historical footprints of other Italian villages and towns in the Calabria region because seismic activity has taken its toll on many ancient buildings that once stood here. Still, starting out from your Calabria villas, you can follow the winding medieval streets and gaze upon a number of Baroque style buildings made with ornamented portals and windows. In addition, in Petra's Quarter, the ruins of a Roman Villa and the ruins of a necropolis more than 2,000 years old are destination spots for historical sightseeing.
