Description

Maddaloni, my City. View of a foreshortened from the place where I currently work.

Maddaloni, ancient town in Campania (it was inhabited since copper age), is positioned on the slopes of Tifatini Mounts and has an half circle shape. It is overlooked by the Medieval Castle and by the Longobard tower.

From the St. Michael mount, whose name is derived from the church name, it is possible to admire the town and the Great Valley where there's the Carolingian aqueduct and Vanvitellian Bridges. You can see also the neapolitan coast with the majestic Vesuvius and Capri island (when there's a clear sky).

Maddaloni, la mia città. Scorcio dal posto dove lavoro attualmente.

Maddaloni, antica città della Campania (fu abitata fin dall'età del rame), adagiata a semicerchio alle pendici dei monti Tifatini, è sovrastata dal Castello Medioevale e dalla Torre Longobarda.

Dal monte S. Michele, che prende il nome dalla omonima chiesa, si gode un'ampia vista sulla città, sulla Grande Vallata dove si trova l'acquedotto Carolino e i Ponti di Vanvitelli, e all'orizzonte, anche sul panorama della costa Napoletana con il maestoso Vesuvio e l'Isola di Capri (nelle giornate abbastanza nitide).
