Founded in the 5th century as a refuge from the constant barbarians’ raids, who led to the fall of the Western Roman Empire, the city began to prosper thanks to the wool art and the trade across the Mediterranean sea with Byzantium. Under the Maritime Republic of Amalfi and the principality of Salerno, Ravello achieved its maximum splendor. It is located above Amalfi and is connected with it through a characteristic and colorful road, full of lemon trees, typical from this coast. You can’t absolutely miss the main villas and palaces of Ravello such as:

  • Palazzo (Villa) Rufolo, famous above all for its gardens, once belonged to one of the most important families of the town
  • Palazzo Tolla, actually the town hall
  • Villa Episcopio, which was built in 1944, the residence of King Vittorio Emanuele lll
  • Villa Cimbrione, where you can enjoy a breathtaking view
  • The Auditorium

Ravello is a charming place that seems to be located beyond the clouds, with its alleys rich in the typical local shops selling ceramics and limoncello juice, that make it enjoyable for everyone , even for those who do not have much time to spend but willing to have a full idea in a short time.
