Calabria is the most southern region of Italy, the "sock" of the Apennine "boot". The rocky mountains, overgrown with forests, are replaced there by hills with vineyards, and the road crosses the fertile plains stretching to the sea. The region is divided into five provinces, bearing the names of the main cities: Cosenza, Crotone, Catanzaro, Vibo-Valentia, Tropea and Reggio di Calabria. The capital is the city of Catanzaro.
The main resorts are located on the Tyrrhenian and Ionian coast of Calabria.

Climate of Calabria
In the territory of Calabria, there are three climatic zones: the Tyrrhenian sea, the Ionian sea and the mountain. For the first characteristic hot summer, moderate cold winter and a small amount of precipitation. In the Ionian zone of hot summer days more than in Tyrrhenian, so many tourists prefer to spend their holidays here. The climate in the mountainous region resembles the Alpine climate: snow often falls in winter, and in summer the average air temperature is much lower than on the coast.

Beaches of Calabria
The coast of Calabria is washed by two seas: Ionian and Tyrrhenian, and the beaches can be found for every taste: you can spend time in the deserted coves hidden among the rocks or hanging out in crowded, well-equipped beaches that turn into noisy discos in the evenings. The beaches of the Tyrrhenian coast are sandy, long enough, surrounded by small cliffs. Ionic - more secluded, small and rocky.
Cuisine and restaurants of Calabria
Pasta in Calabria - "all the head", and the local housewives prefer to serve pasta made by themselves, and rarely use semi-finished products. As a rule, fish, tomato or meat sauces are served with pasta.
As for the "hot", here a special place is occupied by liqueurs based on a peel of local lemon - Cedro ("Chedro") and Limoncelllo ("Limoncello") with a strength of 25 ° to 38 °. They are usually drunk after dinner: it is believed that the substances contained in the zest, promote digestion. Cedro and Limoncelllo are fed to the table chilled to such an extent that the bottle is covered with frost. Photo of Calabria (55)
