Amalfi is a charming and historically rich city located on the picturesque Italian Amalfi Coast at the mouth of a deep valley surrounded by picturesque cliffs that plunge into the Mediterranean Sea. Today, indigenous Italians refer to this hillside town as the "Pearl of the Mediterranean" with its ivory-coloured buildings complete with elegant red-tiled roofs. With narrow alleys running through the city center and up the cliffs, linking the sea to the mountains, a trip to Amalfi rewards visitors with a glimpse of the region's lemon-growing and handcrafted paperwork, as well as quiet beaches, historic landmarks, and luxury resorts and hotels. Here, you can explore stunning medieval architecture, artisan shops, and a plethora of authentic restaurants.
