Amalfi

Amalfi, one of the most romantic places in Italy hands down, is a town and comune in the province of Salerno, in the region of Campania, Italy, on the Gulf of Salerno. It is located at the bottom of a deep valley, at the foot of Monte Cerreto (1,315 meters, 4,314 feet), and is surrounded by magnificent cliffs and a coastline landscape. The town of Amalfi was the capital of the maritime republic known as the Duchy of Amalfi, a prominent commercial force in the Mediterranean between 839 and roughly 1200.

In the 1920s and 1930s, Amalfi was a famous holiday resort for the British upper class and nobility. Amalfi is the principal town on the Costiera Amalfitana (Amalfi Coast), and it is now an important tourist destination, along with other towns on the same coast such as Positano, Ravello, and others. Amalfi is included as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The Amalfi Coast is regarded as one of Italy's hidden treasures, as well as the ideal location for a honeymoon or a marriage proposal, and the entire Amalfi Coast awaits you for sunny, gourmet, romantic, and completely amazing vacations. The Amalfi Coast runs for more than 50 kilometers and features rugged cliffs that resemble the cliffs of Madeira in Portugal. The Amalfi coast's historic fishing villages are breathtakingly colorful and completely lovely, nesting like eagles in the cliffs on the rock spurs. Visit there outside of the main season; in the spring, lemon trees perfume the sea air of the Amalfi Coast, and in September and October, the amazing vineyards carved out of the cliffs come alive. The Amalfi Coast is a fabled destination, a mythological vacation area that has turned the heads of illustrious heroes such as Ulysses, who was charmed by the sirens. Colorful settlements such as Amalfi, Ravello, and Positano greet you on the Amalfi Coast.
