The port of the Calabrian capital of Reggio is the safest in the Messina strait. Reggio is a lively town with its transport hub, the vibrant Piazza Italia, close by the sea. This is also where the town hall and the prefecture are located. To the south-east of the square runs the Corso Garibaldi, the main street, which leads to the cathedral built in 1908 and to the Villa Communale, Reggio's city park. Not far from the cathedral is the Castello Aragonese, a 15th century building with two large circular towers and a very special view. From the Piazza Italia you can find the war memorial dating from 1933 and the Museo Nazionale, which is one of the town's most interesting attractions.
