  • Description:
    The Amalfi Coast (Costiera Amalfitana) is one of the most beautiful places of all Italy. This section of the Tyrrhenian coast was placed in 1997 in the UNESCO’s World Heritage list. It runs between Sorrento and Salerno for less than 40 miles. It’s dotted by glamorous villas and numerous towns. Most photographed and visited places are Amalfi, Ravello, and Positano. This area has long been popular with travelers and artists. To drive through this extraordinary scenic highway carved alongside the most incredible rugged seascape was a challenge to the nervous system of drivers and passengers years ago; however, the excess of tourists and visitors makes the driving now slow and results in an exasperating tailgating creep behind myriads of trucks and tourist buses. The charming fishing villages, the churches filled with frescoes and mosaics, the shops, the dining and accomodation places, the luxurious vegetation of lemon, olives and almond trees as well as vines and bougainvillea and the ever constant view the magnificent blue sea makes this area still one of those places that imprint an unforgettable memory in our lives. The photo shows a view of Positano. Positano is considered to be the jewel of the Amalfi Coast.
