Marina d'Albori Beach is a splendid and characteristic hidden cove of the Amalfi Coast, located in the municipality of Vietri sul Mare. Also known as Spiaggia della Cartiera, this small bay of pebbles and stones overlooks an exceptionally clear and crystalline body of water, also fed by a small stream of cold fresh water that descends directly from the mountain.

The Monumental Fountain of the Episcopio is located in the charming village of Sant'Andrea di Conza (in the province of Avellino, Campania), precisely within the garden of the ancient Episcopio, which was the seat of the episcopal chair. This historic structure is entirely made of local limestone and is characterized by three spectacular tiered waterfalls that flow into a lower square basin. In the center of the latter stands out a large stone dish, all enclosed by a refined balustrade. The abundant water flow that feeds it was originally part of a larger hydraulic system: the water came from the La Fonte mill and continued its course to feed five other mills located in the inhabited center, making it a central element for the daily life and economy of the village.
