The most popular region in Southern Italy is Campania, which is home to Naples, a historic city that has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site thanks to the incredible preserved Roman city of Pompeii, destroyed by Mt. Vesuvius in 79 C.E., and the incomparable Amalfi Coast, a coastal area noted for its breathtaking beauty and series of medieval villages.
