The town of Diamante, located on the Tyrrhenian Sea in the Calabria region of Italy, has become a notable destination for street art enthusiasts. The town features over 200 murals that transform its historic center into an open-air museum.
The mural project began in 1981 through an initiative by Italian painter Nanie Razgetti and local authorities.

In addition to its artistic attractions, Diamante is a coastal resort known for its beaches and proximity to the Cedars Coast.
