Situated on the southern side of the Sorrento peninsula, the Amalfi coast is probably Italy's most beautiful stretch of coast. The town of Amalfi is a seaside resort since Edwardian times, when the British upper class spent their winters here. It still keeps some remnants of its past glories such as the Duomo and the Amalfi's cathedral built in the 9th century. Some of its original ancient features remain, such as the bell tower, the bronze posts on the main door and the Chapel of the Crucifix.

Positano is a romantic sea-side resort town built into the side of a mountain. Since 1800, the charm of the town has fascinated writers and artists from all over the world, such as Goethe, Steinbeck, Picasso and Diaghilev. Rome's legendary movie Dolce Vita found its home right here in Positano. The main sight is the Collegiata di Santa Maria Assunta, that dates back to the 1200s and features a dome made of majolica tiles. Here, you can admire the wonderful Byzantine icon called "Madonna di Positano".
