Amalfi is a town in a dramatic natural setting below steep cliffs on Italy’s southwest coast. Between the 9th and 11th centuries, it was the seat of a powerful maritime republic. The Arab-Norman Sant'Andrea cathedral at the heart of town, with its striped Byzantine facade, survives from this era.
On arriving in Amalfi from the walk, we have time free to explore a little; we visit the magnificent Duomo di Sant' Andrea (see photo captions) and walk around the town for a while, seeing some of the sights.
We drive back to the Agriturismo and then go out to the local hotel in San Lazzaro to hear about the cooks' involvement in pizza-making (a very amusing story) and then eat lots of pizza!
