Tropea is a small town located on the east coast of Calabria, 64 km from Lamezia. It’s known for its white beaches which run right up to Capo Vaticano, its clifftop historic centre, and prized red onions. The town itself is quite picturesque and romantic with winding streets and beautiful small piazzas. Noteworthy is the 12th-century Tropea Cathedral, which was built in distinctive yellow lava rock by the Normans during the 12th century and houses an interesting black crucifix, two unexploded World War II bombs, and a painting of the dark-skinned Madonna of Romania. Due to a number of wonders, the citizens of Tropea have proclaimed the Virgin Mary of Romania the patron of the village.

In the middle between the Ionian and the Tyrrhenian Sea, on the narrowest part of the country, you find Catanzaro whose main attraction is the Viaduct Morandi-Bisantis, one of Europe’s tallest one-arch bridges.

You’re in for a challenge at Amaze World. Make your way through this hedge maze, full of brain-teasing puzzles, mini tile mazes, and a huge walk-through aviary. Take the family to “get lost” in this living hedge maze with two metre high rows of fragrant cypress pine hedges.
