Ravello perches 365 metres up on the Amalfi Coast, looking out over the Tyrrhenian Sea. The resort town has sparked a lot of creativity throughout its history, inspiring Richard Wagner, D. H. Lawrence and plenty of writers, musicians and artists with its stunning scenery and stylish cafés.
Just as the town has influenced a lot of people, Ravello has also been influenced by a lot of people. The Cathedral of Ravello combines baroque and Romanesque styles while the Villa Rufolo is distinctly Moorish in design. Try to time your visit with the Ravello Festival to see the town at its most lively.
Ravello is one of the prettiest towns on the Amalfi coast, combining luxurious villas and lush gardens with one of the country's best music festivals. Sitting up high up on the cliffs for breathtaking views of the Bay of Salerno, the town has an air of glamour and sophistication in its quiet cobbled streets and elegant piazza.
