When trying to imagine a little corner of paradise, a place far from the traffic and the frenzied pace of modern daily life, the Amalfi Coast might easily come to mind.

A stretch of coast which leads from Positano to Vietri sul Mare, lapped by the waters of a strikingly azure blue sea and sheltered by imposing rocks. The coastal road snakes in a succession of sinuous curves through a dreamlike landscape, offering a series of truly breathtaking views.

The towns and villages of the Amalfi Coast share a common urban structure; the houses, tiny chapels, and sumptuous churches of the historic centers located in the highest part of town, linked to the beach and harbors below by a series of steps and steep, narrow lanes.
