What you'll see
A small harbour town of white houses squeezed into a ravine, with one main street climbing inland past lemon shops and pastry counters.
A brief history
Hard to believe now, but Amalfi was a powerful sea republic around the 10th and 11th centuries, trading across the Mediterranean before a storm in 1343 swept much of the old town into the sea.
