Got to terminal 30 mins early to buy ticket (I came day before but was encouraged to come early next day instead of buying on app in case of bad weather conditions) was waiting jn line and then a balding agent that works there approached me and said to get into a shorter line next to the one I was in. Waited in the second line, just to be told I’m in the wrong line and had to go back to the end of the original line. I confronted the guy who sent me to the wrong line and he said to stay and wait in the line (no apology). By the time I made it to the window, all tickets were sold out and it was almost time for the ferry to leave . Terrible experience. Already was hating being stuck in Salerno for so long and was just trying to get out. I will say that there’s a very sweet girl working there that approached me after and I told her what happened and she went out of her way to try to make me feel better. It didn’t work but I...

Bellissimo esempio di architettura "brutalista contemporanea" della defunta archistar Zaha Hadid , in cui questa denominazione esprime esclusivamente il carattere "senza fronzoli" della struttura in cemento armato, progettata nella parte inferiore come una "carena di nave" che sorregge una piastra orizzontale destinata ( si presume ) ad accogliere lo sbarco dei passeggeri dalle navi da crociera ( essendo quello del '44 già concluso da 1 pezzo ) . Gli ambienti organizzati sul "ponte-piastra" sono coperti da un "guscio" continuo con aperture vetrate sagomate. Il "ponte-piastra", che sporge anche di 12mt o più sull'asse est-sud-est, è collegato con la quota inferiore da un sistema di rampe protese lato ovest-nord-ovest , visibili lato mare insieme alla "prua" dell'edificio. Al piano più basso vi è l'accesso al molo , con grande area bar-ristoro , area ritiro bagagli in arrivo e doganale. Lo spigolo est-sud-est dell'edificio è proteso, con il suo aggetto, come una freccia, ad indicare il corpo edilizio del Crescent , poco distante, che, osservato da questa posizione , esprime tutto il suo valore visivo-paesaggistico di quinta architettonica monumentale-postmoderna sull'orizzonte ottico del Golfo di Salerno. Alla sera luogo molto suggestivo . Unico problema , il DESERTO TOTALE aleggia e incombe sul luogo come se ci si trovasse nell'epilogo di un "Day After" . AFTER de che ? Di un sogno visionario di qualche cricca politica...
