    PPS Newsletter www.tpps.org April 2008 Information to Polymer Processing Society Members PPS-24 in Salerno, Italy, the biggest to date? The beautiful and historic city of Salerno, Italy, is situated 60 km south of Naples and offers an enchanting view of the scenery of the Gulf of Salerno facing the magnificent Amalfi Coast. Nearby are the ancient sites of Pompei and Paestum. Salerno has escaped mass tourism, and it is “authentically Italian”, with a historic center, an ancient castle overlooking the city and the bay, and a long seafront promenade. Its marvelous year-round climate makes it possible to enjoy a “typical Italian” outdoor lifestyle. It will be the location of the PPS-24 annual meeting of the Polymer Processing Society (http://www.pps-24.com). The meeting will take place in June 15- 19, 2008. The venue will be the Grand Hotel Salerno right on the coast overlooking Salerno Bay.

  • Guided Small Group Cycling Tour
    Guided small group cycling tour Amalfi Coast & Cilento Cycling the Coast of the Sirens Enjoy the best of southern Italy: from the unknown Cilento to the dramatic Amalfi Coast TRIP NOTES 2020 © Genius Loci Travel. All rights reserved. [email protected] | www.genius-loci.it ***GENIUS LOCI TRAVEL - The Real Spirit Of Italy*** Guided small group cycling tour INTRODUZIONE The regions of Amalfi and the Cilento have been known as a paradise on earth since ancient times. The Greeks built some of their most impressive temples here and under the Romans they formed part of ‘Campania Felix’, or the Happy Land. When travelling here, one easily becomes overwhelmed by the well-known cultural and natural attractions of the famous ‘Costiera Amalfitana’ with its towering cliffs and picturesque coves. However, the Cilento region south of Salerno, now one of Italy’s biggest National Parks, where the coastline bulges out into an expanse of mountainous landmass, is also well worth a visit. This tour gives you the opportunity to discover both the busy, touristy Amalfi and the quiet, peaceful Cilento. Here in the Cilento National Park you pass through world-famous cultural sites that are UNESCO World Heritage listed, such as Velia and Paestum, and visit some of the nicest medieval villages in the area, both along the coast and slightly inland, where the traditional way of life is still evident. All these attractions are connected by great well-paved and quiet roads, ideal for cycling. Of course there will also be plenty of time to enjoy the splendid beaches and wonderful food on offer.
