Castrovillari

Accent the first "i" when you pronounce the name of this provincial Calabrian city, notable for its Aragonese castle, synagogue, and 16th-century San Giuliano church. It's also a great jumping-off point for the Parco Nazionale Pollino. Castrovillari's world-class restaurant-inn, La Locanda di Alia, has made the city something of an out-of-the-way gastronomical destination in Calabria.
