Reggio
Calabria, the largest town in Calabria and its main trading centre,
is splendidily situated on the eastern coast of the Strait of Messina,
where the strait joins the Ionian Sea. It enjoys an exceptionally
mild climate all year round and for this reason is a popular tourist
resort.
This
town has ancient origins that date back to the second half of the
8th century B.C. and which are linked to the founding of another
Calcidian town, nowadays
known as Messina. The city, however, experienced a destruction during
the Greek expansion in Italy and fell later into the hands of the
Romans, although the Greek language was maintained and the town
did not suffer any decline like other towns in southern Italy. It
was devastated by Alaric, dominated by the Byzantines, Turks, Normans
and Aragonese until the rebellion in 1847 when it fell under the
Bourbons. Unfortunately, very little remains of its historical past,
as the city was destroyed by earthquakes a number of times.
