 The
place of that event and center of the southern Italian
peperoncino cult is Diamante at the Costa dei Cedri, a
pleasantly undeveloped part of Italy's west coast with
its clear sparkling seas.
The historical fishermen's village is situated on a
rock, safe from flooding, and from
pirates, too. Today, tourists capture the town instead -
thousands of them in the summer, many from northern
Italy, but also from other parts of Europe.
From the promenade stretching between Diamante and
Cirella, one of the prettiest in the Riviera, the
transparent sea, the sandy and pebbly beaches and
volcanic rock formations offer a breathtaking spectacle.
