Amalfi

While Positano may be the posher of the sister cities on the Amalfi Coast, the village from which the coast derives its name is no ugly duckling. It features a central cathedral dating back to the 9th century in an Arab-Norman Romanesque architectural style, entire neighborhoods dangling above the town on the ancient terraces built into the sides of the sheer rock, and a spectacular valley that produces the finest lemons ever squeezed into a bottle of limoncello.
