The town hall of Ravello
 

The Amalfi coast is stunning and the hillside town of Ravello has the best views on the coastline. It is said Ravello is situated ‘halfway between the sky and the sea’ and it is certainly one of the most beautiful places in the world. Some 365 metres above sea-level, the medieval town is made up of narrow alleys with steep steps, it has a beautiful piazza and cathedral built in 1087. Ravello inspired many famous composers including Richard Wagner, Edvard Grieg, Bernstein Toscanini, – artists such as Escher, Mirò – writers such as Ruskin, Boccaccio, D H Lawrence.
