Tropea, the well-known seaside resort in the province of Vibo Valentia, in Calabria, is the winner of the eighth edition of the "Borgo dei Borghi 2021" broadcast on Rai 3 on Easter Sunday. In the broadcast conducted by Camila Raznovich, 20 villages challenged each other, one per region. The result was also decreed by the preferences of the public expressed through social media. Renamed "la Perla del Tirreno”, Tropea is known for its white beaches, crystal clear waters and suggestive caves that are part of the famous Costa degli Dei. The historic center offers breathtaking views and glimpses of the coast below, dominated by Sanctuary of Santa Maria dell’Isola. Not to forget, moreover, the gastronomy, with the typical Tropea Onion, protagonist of inimitable recipes.
