We will meet at the entrance to the National Archaeological Museum of Reggio Calabria (MArRC), where we will begin a guided visit of the museum's collections. We will start on the floor dedicated to prehistory, to learn about the ancient peoples of the Enotri and Bretti, and discover the value of burials in telling the story of past civilizations. We will then delve into Greek colonization and the history of Magna Graecia, with particular attention to the treasures of Locri. Next, we will enter Roman Reggio and approach the most eagerly awaited encounter: a visit to the famous Riace Bronzes, retracing the exciting stages of their discovery and admiring their extraordinary beauty up close.
After the museum, we will enjoy a delicious break with a tasting of typical products.
The tour will then continue along the Falcomatà seafront, known as the “most beautiful kilometer in Italy,” a veritable open-air museum. During the walk, we will discover Greek and Roman artifacts, admire historic buildings such as Villa Genoese Zerbi, and modern and contemporary works of art, including the evocative sculptures by Rabarama and “Opera” by Tresoldi.
We will end our walking tour in Piazza Duomo to discover the link between Reggio and São Paulo and the works housed in the Cathedral. An itinerary full of emotions, ancient history, and authentic flavors.
