Geographical location of Fuscaldo, well protected by nature itself, contributed to the early appearance of the fortified settlement Langobar s .

How to get here
By plane. There are no direct flights to Fuscaldo, you need to follow through to Cosenza. This can be done in three ways - through Rome (6 hours and 45 minutes), via Milan (7 hours) and via Naples (7, 5 hours). From Cosenza you are less than an hour, reach the destination by bus, or if you prefer speed and delivery directly to the hotel, by taxi.
By train. Of course, the option of traveling by train to Italy seems, to put it mildly, quite exotic, but for those who like to rest under the clatter of wheels, we bring it. There are no direct trains from Moscow to Italy, but you can take the Moscow-Vienna train, and then take the train to Rome. You can follow through Basel - Milan, it will be faster, but the transplant is larger, and, therefore, the trip will be more expensive. In any case, from these cities you need to go to Cosenza on the local train, and from there to Fuscaldo, as in the previous version.

Shopping
Italy - a recognized leader of shopping, but even here Cosenza - the capital of the region in which Fuscaldo is located - stands out, as it is in this city that the largest shopping center in the whole of South Italy, Metropolis, is located. Fuscaldo himself is also strewn with a network of shops and shops, but the choice here, of course, is much less than in Cosenza. Nevertheless, you will be able to buy everything here, for what you are going to Italy, first of all, shoes and textiles
Cuisine
Calabrian cuisine is surprisingly healthy and tasty, as for many centuries this region has been farming and fishing. As you know, peasant labor is the hardest, so there was simply no time to distract yourself for cooking particularly delicious dishes for peasants and fishermen. However, the love of good food lives in the soul of every Italian, so simple foods, through a few strokes, they managed to turn into a real art.
The Calabrian cuisine presents a wide variety of dishes - meat, fish, and vegetable. Their main feature is the use of local spicy peppers - pepperoncino. Food is prepared only from natural products, even the pizza and pasta are protected by the mistress of the house owner. Pasta in general is the basis of the Calabrian table, it is always served with sauce - meat, tomato or fish. Among the meat dishes the most popular pork, we advise you to try the New Calabrian salami from pork and chili peppers.
Of course, we can not fail to mention fish and seafood, a business card of Calabria. Dorada, octopus, sea bass, mollusks and botraga roe - this is not a complete list of what local fishermen and cooks are ready to treat you. Southerners, as you know, sweet tooth, this fate of the Calabrians has not passed. All kinds of nuts, candied fruits, nougat, and, most importantly, gingerbread cookies in the form of figurines of different animals will please both children and adults.
Of course, special attention should be paid to local wines, the most famous of which is Ciro's history from ancient times . But other products of the region's grapevine are not inferior to this celebrity. Do not forget to also finish the dinner with a glass-another "Chedra" or "Lemoncello" - liqueurs, in the opinion of Italians improve digestion. You will need this after a more than generous Calabrian feast.
