테라노바 사포 미눌리오 최고의 사이클링 경로

On the Passo del Mercante, my father told me, that my grandfather met my grandmother. My grandfather was a young woodcutter who climbed the pass from Cittanova; and my grandmother was a shepherdess from Canalo Vecchio. They met by chance, and immediately argued: it seems that she didn't like the woodcutters, because they were too noisy and scared the cattle... But my grandfather, evidently made the difference, "maybe he was cute and she was very beautiful" and after the argument they made peace and fell in love.... Every time I'm in the area, I always go to the Pass to greet the memory of my grandfather 👴 and my grandmother👵 😊👋👋

The Church of San Francesco is a significant structure of the mendicant orders in Southern Italy, dating back to the late 13th and early 14th centuries. It consists of a rectangular hall and a quadrangular presbytery, which houses the sarcophagus of Nicola Ruffo of Calabria from 1374. The baroque altar in inlaid marble, from the 1660s, is also notable. The structure overlooks the Three Churches Square, formed in the 1980s after the destruction of a vegetable garden of the ancient monastery of San Giovanni Chrysostom.

The Church of San Giovanni Crisostomo (also known as 'San Giovannello'), internally presents the Pròthesis and the Diaconicon and an ancient cistern, and has two doors, one for the faithful and one for the nearby monastery. Elevated to a Byzantine parish in the 1990s, it respects the Byzantine tradition with the apse facing east.

Mandatory stop at the stall, for a sandwich, a glass of wine, a dessert or a coffee. The owner is very nice.

Beautiful panoramic spot where you can get some sun, take a break and maybe even camp out.

The Castle of Gerace, dating back to the 7th century AD, was devastated by the Byzantines in the 10th century. Rebuilt and fortified by the Normans in 1050, it suffered damage from earthquakes over the centuries. What remains is a tower, some walls, and traces of ancient structures such as a Byzantine oratory, drawbridge and armory.

Mandatory stop at the Zomaro crossroads stall. The lady's sandwiches are famous throughout Aspromonte, exceptional!

A very nice town. There is a small thermal pool where you can take a hot bath
