PAUSILIPON is a word from the old greek language which means A PLACE WHERE EVERYTHING FINDS PEACE AND REST.
This is also the name of one of the most enchanting AREAS of the city of Naples in Italy. The italian name of this area is nowadays "POSILLIPO" a pleasant green hill overlooking the gulf of Naples, it is for me a place of the heart and soothing memories.
