Torre del Greco
Episode 4 of 15
On the Bay of Naples, Clive finds out why the foothills of an active volcano are the perfect location for a farm and why Italy’s first trains were made in Britain.
Famous for the ruins of Pompeii, the coastline around Mount Vesuvius has been a holiday destination since Roman times.
Heading off the tourist track, Clive unearths why volcanic soil makes for the tastiest fruit and veg, learns to make Italian marmalade, uncovers the surprising royal tale behind Italy’s first train line and tries his hand at carving jewellery from coral found deep beneath the sea.
