Rotondella, also known as the \u201cBalcony overlooking the Ionian Sea\u201d is one of Italy\u2019s loveliest little towns. It has an unusually encircling roundness that takes you into the alleys, stately homes, churches and chapels with their inebriating scents, the fresh air, the harmony conveyed by uncontaminated natural surroundings as well as the appetizing specialties of the local cuisine.
\nThe area of Rotondella has a wealth of resources as regards landscapes and natural environment \u2013 the pristine beaches at Lido Rivolta, the Bosco Finocchio picnic area in the woods and, for those who enjoy trekking, the incredible beauty of the \u201c Gole di Candela\u201d (The gorges of Candela).<\/p>\n

NOT TO BE MISSED<\/h3>\n

Worthy of note are the 18th-century stately homes, all having ornate entrances and fa\u00e7ades with finely sculpted stone mascaron decorations. Unusual are the \u201cLamie di Bitonte\u201d; in a dominant position is the massive Sanseverino Tower, also known as the Torred del Carcere (Prison Tower), that was once the watchtower of the Prince of Salerno, Ferrante Sanseverino. Erected in 1518, from the top you can have a magnificent view of the Ionian Coast. Not to be missed is the view from the terrace in Piazza della Repubblica. Lovely churches make up Rotondella\u2019s sacred heart \u2013 the Chiesa Madre (the main church), the Chiesa di Sant\u2019Antonio da Padova (St. Anthony\u2019s Church), St. Anthony of Padua being the patron saint of Rotondella, and, beyond the town centre, there is the Chiesa di Santa Laura ( St. Laura\u2019s Church).<\/p>\n

FOOD EXCELLENCE<\/h3>\n

The perfect streetfood \u2013 the ultimate traditional specialty of the town \u2013 is \u201cU\u2019 Pastizz\u201d, a savoury turnover filled with pork, a touch of parsley, eggs and cheese. It is guaranteed to entice the palates of tourists and local people alike. This product has been included by the Ministry of Agricultural Policies in the National Register of Traditional Food Products . Also excellent are the \u201cfruzzul c\u00e0 middiche\u201d, a hand-made fresh pasta dish topped with sauce and fried bread crumbs. Not to be missed is the \u201cSospiro\u201d (Sigh) decorated with a chocolate spiral reminiscent of the layout of the town. Last but not least is the apricot because Rotondella is renowned for being the \u201cland of apricots\u201d.<\/p>\n
