We have divided the map into 2 parts, so that it can be read well also on a mobile phone.

Map 1:

2B

The B&B is located in the center, in a side street (Via Generale Armando Diaz) that crosses the main street of the city (Corso Vittorio Emanuele), perfectly halfway between the station and the historic center (both a 5-minute walk). The port can also be reached in 5 minutes on foot, which allows you to easily use ferries to visit the Amalfi Coast.

Leaving the B&B, after reaching Corso Vittorio Emanuele, you will enter in the historic center through Piazza Portanova.

3B

Inside the historic center, the main street changes name (not more Corso Vittorio Emanuele, but Via Mercanti). This road leads:

  • first, to a perpendicular street: Via Duomo (with which it’s possible to reach the Cathedral for a side, and San Giorgio Church for the other side)
  • and then until the end of the historic centre, from which it’s possible to exit from Via Portacatena.

At this point (on Via Portacatena) you can:

  • take the elevator to visit the magnificent Giardino della Minerva (a botanical garden, which was the “pharmacy” of the Salerno Medical School, the oldest medical university in the world!);
  • or you can reach the new square of the city (Piazza della Libertà) and return to the B&B walking along the waterfront, stopping for an aperitif on the sea at the Embarcadero, which, with the exception of what there is in the 2 ports of the city, it is the only building present on the entire waterfront!

Returning to the first map: it is also very nice to take a walk in Piazza Flavio Gioia, with the ancient door of the city, through which you return to the historic center from a parallel street of Via Mercanti (Vicolo Masuccio Salernitano).
