A story by Giovanni Guareschi – the literary "father" of "Don Camillo and Peppone" – ends with the sentence "Things happen there, in this strange region... where people think more with their clubs than with their brains, but where at least the dead are respected." To understand it, one must recall the political situation in Italy at that time, immediately after the end of World War II: The monarchy had been abolished, the royal family was in exile, and the communists were partially in power (as was the case in Don Camillo's village). In the story "The Old Teacher," the woman who had taught generations of villagers their ABCs has died. She had expressed her last wish to Mayor Peppone and Don Camillo that her flag – the old one with the coat of arms from the time of the monarchy – be placed above her coffin. However, all factions of the municipal council had spoken out against it. Peppone replied: "So I tell you... that I don't care about your opinion and that Signora Cristina will go to the cemetery tomorrow with the flag she likes, because I value her more dead than you alive." Hence the sentence quoted at the beginning, "where at least the dead are respected."

Capo Vaticano is a cape located on a rocky outcrop in Calabria in the municipality of Ricadi. From the cape there is a wide view of the Strait of Messina (Stretto di Messina) and all of the Aeolian Islands (Stromboli, Vulcano, Lipari, Salina, Filicudi, Alicudi and Panarea). When visibility is good, you can see the high power pillars that once supplied Sicily with electricity from Calabria above ground. The place has nothing to do with the Vatican. The name refers to an oracle that was visited by sailors during the time of Greek settlement. Source: Wikipedia

A tour of the cemetery is worthwhile. The monumental tombs are impressive.

The lighthouse was built in 1885 and consists of a white cylindrical tower 8 metres (26 ft) high with a balcony and a lantern attached to the front, single-story white keeper's house. The lantern, painted in metallic gray, is located 108 metres (354 ft) above sea level and emits four white flashes every 20 seconds, which are visible at a distance of 24 nautical miles (44 km; 28 mi). The lighthouse is fully automatic, operated by the Marina Militare and bears the code number 2708 EF.

To say that the Benedictine Sanctuary of Santa Maria dell'Isola (the Santuario benedettino di Santa Maria dell'Isola) is magnificent would be a sheer understatement, and it's not hard to see why it's one of Tropea's most photographed attractions. The sanctuary stands on a high rocky outcrop, surrounded by the beach and sparkling sea. Source: https://www.italia.it/en/calabria/things-to-do/tropea

Already popular in Roman times, Tropea was finally elevated to a bishopric in the 8th century. Then it was the Normans and especially the Angevins and Aragonese who brought prosperity to the Calabrian city. The Cathedral, also a result of the Norman era, was remodeled several times after seismic damage. Note the fascinating Gothic portals and then go inside to admire the various works of art. The structure is at the center of some myths and legends: one of them tells of an incident in which two bombs were placed at the entrance of the church but never exploded, supposedly due to the protection of the Virgin of Tropea.
