  • Travel's Taste
    Travel’s taste YOUR LUXURY TRAVEL PARTNER IN ITALY www.italycreative.it Amalfi Coast Amalfi More about: things to know Coast www.italycreative.it Deemed by Unesco to be an outstanding example of a Mediterranean landscape, the Amalfi Coast is a beguiling combination of great beauty and gripping drama: coastal mountains plunge into the sea in a stunning vertical scene of precipitous crags, picturesque towns and lush forests. Most hotels and villas are open from March/April through October/November. The towns on the water with beaches include Amalfi, Atrani, Cetara, Furore, Maiori, Minori, Praiano, Positano, and Vietri sul Mare. Towns higher up on the cliffs include Agerola, Ravello, Scala, and Tramonti. Amalfi Coast is crossed by Strada Statale 163 Amalfitana (world-famous known as Amalfi Drive), a 50km (30 miles) stretch of road from north to south. If we take the two entrance points to the Amalfi Coast with Sorrento in the north and Salerno in the south, the road goes through the towns in this order: Positano | Praiano | Amalfi | Atrani | Minori | Maiori | Cetara | Vietri Sul Mare It's important to know the order as that would make exploring the towns a bit easier. The Sorrento to Salerno direction is more preferrable as, by being in the right lane, you are right next to the cliffs with no opposing traffic to block your view. There are no trains serving the Amalfi Coast. HOTELS selection Amalfi à POSITANO Coast www.italycreative.it Spread between four villas, each of the suites offers a unique blend of carefree comfort and careful attention to detail.

  • The Kingdom of Naples a Cultural Mosaic in Campania
    Mosaic Tour 2020: The Kingdom of Naples A Cultural Mosaic in Campania OCTOBER 7–14, 2020 The cultural mosaic of a portion of the Kingdom of Naples is the focus of this tour as it is a microcosm of European history. We are concentrated on what today is the province of Campania and will be staying mostly on the Sorrento coast. In many ways, the Kingdom of Naples (after 1816 the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies) is the birthplace of Europe. The importance of the ancient Greek and Roman monuments in Southern Italy, the Arab overlay in certain areas and the architectural vision of the Spanish and French rulers were a magnet for the Grand Tour aristocrats and eventual ruling classes from northern Europe and North America who sought a common culture heritage and philosophic expression for their own emerging nations. Stendhal considered Naples a great European capital, the equal of Paris. Much later, of course, Naples was also an important arena in World War II for Canadian forces moving up the shin of Italy with the British 8th and the US 5th Army. Greek Temples at Paestum The first tesserae in this mosaic are the Greek colonists, at Paestum, where an early city plan provided a model for urbanization in Southern Italy. That model would be modified by the Romans as they tried to unify a peninsula of indigenous peoples and Greek colonies. The differences between a Greek city and a Roman city are visible at Pompeii, discovered in 1748. Pompeii started a mania for ruins and antiquity that would provide the visible Neoclassical identity of Europe.
