The Telegraph has collected the 21 destinations that no one would ever think of visiting, including Italians, and which instead deserve to be seen. At the top of the British newspaper's chart is Marina di Pisciotta, a village in the province of Salerno in Campania that has less than 3 thousand inhabitants.

Pisciotta is part of the National Park of Cilento and Vallo di Diano. The characteristic pastel-colored houses are found in the alleys that wind throughout the town. Following an obligatory path, you come out into small squares where it is still possible to meet local men who enjoy playing cards or observing everything that happens around them. A place of other times, as perhaps there are many in Italy.

But Pisciotta is different. The village developed around the top of a low and steep hill overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea, on whose sides flow two streams, the Fiori and the S. Macario.
The first hypotheses on the origins of Pisciotta are connected to the destruction of Troy. In 650 a. C. the Trojans, escaped from the fire and the destruction of the city, landed on the Ionian beach, where they founded Siri. The inhabitants of Siri then advanced towards the west, following the wide valley of the river Sinni, as far as the lake and Mount Sirino (which took their name from them), in what is now Lagonegro. They then went as far as the Tyrrhenian Sea, on the shore of today's Gulf of Policastro. It is here that they founded the Pixous colony. In 194 a. C. the Greek Pixous became the Roman Buxentum and in 915 Pisciotta was born.
In just 4 kilometers it contains many of the elements that make Cilento unique: in addition to the crystal-clear sea of Marina di Pisciotta, a pristine hinterland, history and traditions. Seen from the sea Pisciotta emerges among the olive trees, is guarded by other hills on the right and is missing and overlooks a small gulf. The pretty medieval village is the one that has been best preserved throughout the Cilento. The noble palaces and the Mother Church are defended by all the other ancient stone buildings.
The best starting point to visit the village is the large piazza Raffaele Pinto, still the cultural and social center of the village. Going up the stairs you arrive at the first vantage point, the Piazzetta del Cannone: a small suspended terrace opens the view on the roofs of the houses and on the hills that line the river Fiore. Continuing on, you will find yourself at the foot of the eighteenth-century marquis palace, erected by the Pappacoda family, feudal lords of the town. Of considerable architectural interest are the portal and the imposing sandstone staircase, as well as the round arches and the façade. The Palace, which houses the municipal library, directly overlooks the expanse of ancient olive trees that slope down to the sea up to the small tourist port.
Further on you can admire another noble palace, the Palazzo Francia, overlooking a small square very dear to the Pisciottans because it was dedicated to a benefactor, Michelangelo Pagano. Going down via Pendino, you discover the remains of the ancient Romanesque church of 1200 and the tiny Cappella della Mercede, dear to the fishermen who thanked the Virgin on her return from fishing. Near the Chapel is the Palazzo Vescovile dei Lancellotti, and, a little further down, Palazzo Ciaccio. In short, this village offers an interesting excursion into the Middle Ages. But few - foreigners and even Italians - know him.
