Amalfi Coast

Among the many coastlines in Italy, the scenery of the Amalfi Coast is the most beautiful. Located on the south side of the Sorrento Peninsula in southern Italy, from Salerno to Positano, there are 14 coastal towns. In 1997, the Amalfi Coast was listed as a 'Cultural Landscape World Heritage Site' by UNESCO. 🍀 One of the top ten most beautiful sights in the world, together with the Greek islands, it is known as 'Paradise on Earth'. The sunset light permeates the entire sea, waves and sails, the houses are scattered and shrouded in smoke, the crowd and vehicles on the cliff path are calm and peaceful, and the beauty is overwhelming. 🍀 There is a small town also called Amalfi. The name of this town is also the source of the name of the Amalfi Coast. From Positano along Salerno, there is a bay road known as 'Lemon Street'.

PATH OF THE GODS, ALMAFI COAST Dari kawasan pergunungan kita menuju ke pinggir lautan … dari utara minggir ke selatan. The famous Almafi Coast, a 50-kilometer stretch of coastline along the southern edge of Italy’s Sorrentine Peninsula, in the Campania region. Kawasan dengan tebing tinggi di sepanjang pinggir laut yang menghubungkan penempatan tepi laut yang cukup terkenal, definitely one of the most beautiful part of Italy 🇮🇹 . The not so good thing is this place can be crowded and expensive especially in peak season. So that’s why I choose to travel on the off season and the best way to explore this region in my opinion is by foot. Terdapat banyak hiking trails di sepanjang tebing tinggi pinggir laut dengan view yang cukup dramatic di antara bandar Almafi dan Positano but I choose the most famous—the Sentiero degli Dei or Path of the Gods! This 8 kilometres hike between the village of Bomerano to Nocella, Positano and vice versa will take around 2 to 4 hours (depending on how many times you stops to take in all the views). So how difficult it is? It’s can be easy to moderate difficulty… you find it easy if you are an experienced hiker … which I’m not and I find it was not too bad .. BUT … bare in mind that this hike is not for everyone and never ever underestimate the risks because some of the paths are rough, very exposed and narrow with loose stones. So be extra careful with your feet. The important thing to know is it’s much easier to start your hike from the village Bomerano (easily reach by bus from Almafi) and end it in Nocella because the hike mostly downhill. But if you up for something more challenging you can do it the opposite way 🤷🏼‍♂️. Bila dah habis hike sampai Nocella tu boleh la menuju Positano menggunakan bas atau turun melalui 1500 anak tangga. Sebenarnya time aku sampai Nocella tu ngam2 sunset … almaklumlah off season pukul 5 pm dah sunset … maka dengan kaki mcm rasa nak tercabut dah dan dalam keadaan gelap gelita berpandukan torchlight handphone aku rendah je la anak-anak tangga tu sampai Positano … azab betul rasanya 😅 I just love hiking/ tracking along the coastline - you’ll have epic seascapes, dramatic cliffs, and epic coastal scenery. I have a chance to do a few costal hike around Europe and here are my top 3 so far : 1. Fira to Oia, Santorini 2. Path of The Gods, Almafi Coast 3. Monterosso to Vernazza, Cinque Terre #mytripvlog#tripblazers#spooktaculartrip

Amalfi is a beautiful place for travelling. The beaches, church, and local shops are special. However, there is always packed with people. Also, some of the Italians are rude by keep pushing us during queuing. Plus, we have been jumping queue by the Italians.#amalficoast

#eurotrip It was a summer during that time After almost 20 hours journey finally reached this mesmerizing cliffside village. It was my greatest moment ever as i celebrated my birthday here overlooking the sunny Amalfi coast and relaxing at the pebbled shores beach. The structure, arrangement of the village are really amazing. Stayed in one of the boutique guesthouse with italian decor and super friendly host was lovely as i managed to learn and assimilate with local culture and understand the culture of italian people especially positano village people. My entire stay with the same routine, woke up in the morning, had a cup of cappucino, walking to the beach, had lunch at small cafe on the cliffside, relaxing at the beach again. Amalfi coast always have a special place in my heart. Hopefully i had a chance to explore more on this coast in my next visit. Ciao Positano!! #awesomepic

Magically suspended between the blue sky and the iridescent colored sea, the Amalfi coast seems to be born from the palette of a painter who wanted to use the warmer color gradients for creating a landscape that enchants the visitor at the first shot, giving thrilling experience and such evocative view to doubt, for a moment, it is real. It is the land where the sweet scent of lemon blossoms harmonizes itself with the most aromatic one of the Mediterranean vegetation and the acrid aroma of saltiness; where the brilliant colors of the majolica domes, bougainvillea and carnations pergolas give an evident colored touch to the typical whitewashed houses, clinging to the last offshoots of the Lattari Mounts that plunge dramatically into the sea. A vertical landscape, in short, characterized by a picturesque labyrinth of stairways and narrow alleys, connecting the two main elements of this landscape: the mountains and the sea. A continuous succession of headlands and inlets, bays and fjords, interspersed with pebbled beaches and rocks on which you can still see the ancient viceregal towers, the first bulwark of the local population against the Saracen attacks. The shift from the sea to mountain is seamless: the mountain sides were terraced over the centuries, shaped by human labor to create flaps of arable land and already compared, during the Renaissance period, to the legendary Hesperides by the Italian writer and naturalist Giambattista Della Porta. All the towns of the Amalfi coast are connected by the scenic SS. 163 road, built in the first half of the XIX century during the Bourbon period and always considered one of the most beautiful road in Italy. Following the natural course of the coastline, the route is full of curves, nestled between the rock and the sea cliffs, giving new and spectacular shots at the exit of every tunnel or hairpin bend. #mynovgetaway #thanksgiving #mynovgetaway#thanksgiving

Ravello is one of the most charming towns on the Amalfi Coast. It offers some of the best views of the famous coastline, with sweeping seascapes and breathtaking scenery. It is, in short, an ideal location. While the origins of Ravello date back to the Roman era, it was the Middle Ages that gave it wealth and status, when the inhabitants were involved in maritime trade with the Orient. The newly enriched families of that age built castles, villas, churches and civic buildings to show off their wealth and to rival their richer, influential neighbor town of Amalfi. Amalfitans gave Ravello the name, "Rebellum" (rebel). The town's villas offer vivid vantage points for the views. Villa Cimbrone and Villa Rufolo are famous for their encompassing panoramas. Villa Rufolo inspired the composer Wagner when he wrote his famed opera, Parsifal. Ravello is still known for its musical events, including the Ravello Festival, which is strongly connected to the composer and his symphonies. The town boasts its cultural roots, too; just stroll the alleyways, enjoy the architecture and piazzas to see the town's history and pride at its best. The Cathedral, dedicated to San Pantaleo, was inaugurated in 1087. The simple facade hides a lovely church with a grand 12th century entry doors and a pulpit plopped atop six spiral columns. The cathedral's museum houses sculpture and art dating back to Roman and Medieval times. Ravello is home to the fascinating little Coral Museum of Ravello, a showcase of craftsmanship in the art of the coral jewelry and decoration. The town is noted for its devotional chapels and votives that are attached to and painted on walls all over the city. Look for them as you wander the streets. A recommended tour is to take the bus uphill, then walk back downhill to Amalfi. There's a nice path alongside a stream between Amalfi and Ravello and it is well signed on the maps. Have lunch in Ravello and then walk off the pasta on the pathway! #mynovgetaway #thanksgiving #mynovgetaway#thanksgiving

Head to the town of Furore, located in the Campania region of Italy, right in the middle of the Amalfi Coast, where a gigantic fjord opens to create its very own hidden beach!

Enjoying the picturesque Amalfi Coast views of Positano in an Italian summer from the stunning rooftop of Villa Franca.

I've been dreaming of Positano since I first created my Instagram. I saw photos of captivating landscapes and enchanting towns that have long inspired film-makers. With its dramatic scenery and stark beauty the journey on Amalfi coast is worth an Oscar itself, so don your shades and your headscarf, and explore this place in a gleaming vintage car and snap through the most Instagram worthy spots in existence.
