Naples and Pantelleria in the Time ranking

People bathe in the warm thermal water of the sea as they have done for centuries”. The national park, inaugurated in 2016, according to the American magazine "is gently transforming Pantelleria from a summer seaside destination to a natural idyll all year round, where the Mediterranean scrub gives way to orchids and strawberry trees and the warm mist wafts from the mountainsides.” Trekking, archeology, the natural spas and its gastronomy with a typically Mediterranean taste "make theisland 'Mirror of Venus' a destination to visit all year round, not just in summer”.
Art, history and a lot of naturalistic beauty
Again according to Time the phrase 'See Naples and die'” is truer than ever now that the iconic city finally enjoys a reputation that matches its Golden Age past.
