The history of Sanza simply cannot be told without the mention of San Vito Hotel. It is a must-visit for visit tourists.
Centro Storico
In every Italian city, town or village there is a Centro Storico which translates into English as City Centre. The Centro Storico of a town or village is where all the major activities like fun fares, magic shows and outdoor events like drama shows take place. The story is no different in Sanza which has a very vibrant Centro Storico where you can visit and mingle with the people while also enjoying some outdoor events.
Bell Tower of Sanza
The Bell Tower of Sanza is a historical tower that was built by the parish church of San Martino centuries ago using primarily limestone and clay material. The Parish church is no longer in Sanza and the Bell Tower has been converted into a historical clock tower for the village. As one of the oldest monuments built during the early years of civilization, the Bell Tower attracts thousands of tourists.
Cilento and Vallo di Diano National Park
Cilento and Vallo di Diano National Park is located in the province of Salerno, a few miles from Sanza. It is a good place to visit especially for families on vacation in Sanza as the park is more suited to host families and groups of friends.
