Paestum Paestum is a little bit of ancient Greece
in Italy. Poseidonia was founded by the Greeks in the 6th century BC, later
the Romans called it Paestum. Today Paestum has three lovely Doric temples with fat cigar-shaped columns to run around and lots of open space.
Take a picnic. Paestum is also a beach resort so spend some
time relaxing at the seaside. |
