Reggio Calabria

Reggio Calabria is also known for being the tip of the "Boot", the southernmost city of the Italian Peninsula. Lying on the Strait of Messina in front of Sicily, which due to a rare phenomenon of optical refraction is seen reflected in the waters of the strait, it has always been considered the center of the Mediterranean.
The National Archaeological Museum houses the Riace Bronzes, a pair of life-sized ancient Greek statues. Nearby, the Bergamot Museum showcases the tools used to extract oil from this citrus. To the east, in the mountains, the Aspromonte National Park features beech and pine forests populated by wolves, wild boars and deer.
