THE AMALFI COAST

 

The natural beauty and picturesque landscapes of the Amalfi Coast have made it one of the most popular destinations, earning it the nickname of "Divine Coast" (Divina costiera).

 

The Amalfi Coast is well-known for its production of limoncello liqueur, made from lemon grown in terraced gardens along the entire coastline, between February and October.

 

Amalfi is also unique for its hand-made thick paper called bambagina, symbolic of Italy’s ancient traditional technique for paper production and historically used for legal acts, and revenue stamps. Other world renowned local products are a particular kind of anchovy (alici in italian) from Cetara, and the colourful handmade ceramics from Vietri.
