Cosenza Calabria
A Calabrian city which has preserved the traces of antiquity
The city of Cosenza extends over seven hills which dip into the valley where the Crati River converges with that of the Busento. The picturesque historic center is situated to the left of the Crati river, its narrow roads and alleyways winding up the hills of Pancrazio, Guarassano and Torrevetere.
To the West of the city, the slopes of Mount Cocuzzo form a natural barrier between Cosenza and the Tyrrhenian sea, whilst, to the East, one finds the wooded high plain of the Sila, where the wolf, symbol of this ancient Calabrian city, still roams free.
