Near Amalfi Cathedral
Amalfi Coast 0.3 km
A stretch of steep coast on the Gulf of Salerno, south of the Sorrento Peninsula, where towns such as Positano, Amalfi and Ravello cling to the cliffs. A narrow road winds above the sea between them, past lemon terraces and small beaches.
Villa Rufolo 1.8 km
A villa in the historic centre of Ravello, laid out in the 13th century and remodelled in the 19th, facing the cathedral square. Its terraced gardens hang high above the Amalfi Coast, and Richard Wagner drew on them for a scene in Parsifal.
Positano 10 km
A town on the Amalfi Coast whose houses, painted in pinks and yellows, tumble down a steep hillside to a small beach. Steps and lanes take the place of streets in much of it, and boats leave from the shore for Amalfi and Capri.
Pompeii 16 km
A Roman city buried under ash and pumice by Vesuvius in 79 AD and slowly uncovered since the 18th century. Its streets, houses, bakeries, baths and painted walls show ordinary Roman life more fully than almost anywhere else.
Villa of the Mysteries 17 km
A Roman villa on the edge of Pompeii, known for the frescoes of one room painted in the 1st century BC. The figures, on a deep red ground, are usually read as a bride's initiation into a mystery cult, and are among the finest Roman paintings to survive.
Mount Vesuvius 26 km
A volcano on the Gulf of Naples, about 9 kilometres east of the city, its cone partly ringed by the rim of an older and much higher mountain. A path climbs to the edge of the crater, with the whole bay spread out below.
Herculaneum 29 km
A Roman seaside town in modern Ercolano, buried by Vesuvius in 79 AD under deep volcanic deposits. Because of that, wooden beams, furniture and upper floors survived here that were lost at Pompeii, so the site is smaller but often better preserved.
Capri 33 km
An island off the Sorrento Peninsula on the south side of the Gulf of Naples, a resort since the days of the Roman Republic. Limestone cliffs, the Faraglioni sea stacks and the hilltop town of Anacapri draw visitors by ferry from Naples and Sorrento.
