Discover the Greek Temples of Paestum and City of Salerno.
About an hours drive south of Naples there is another important Italian provincial capital Salerno. In medieval times Salerno was the world capital of medicine. The Monastery of the Benedictine monks, who probably founded its medical school, offered the best instruction then available. One of the most famous medical texts of that time was the "Regimen Sanistas Salerni" written here in Latin and translated into almost every European language.
