1001 Places/Experiences to See or Savour #290 - Amalfi on Xmas Day, Italy

1001 Places/Experiences to See or Savour After Remission #290

- Amalfi on Xmas Day, Italy 

(The quiet Xmas morning at Amalfi gave us the opportunity to take long strolls along its narrow cobble stoned streets. The charm of Amalfi is best felt in this side street, which leads to its most imposing structure here, the 9th century St Andrea Cathedral, with its 57 steps. It may be Xmas Day but the piazza was still buzzing with visitors. Just watching the Italians walking by while sipping a cup of latte machiatto in front of the cathedral was totally relaxing. We were forewarned that all restaurants will be closed..not at all; many stayed opened with lunch options aplenty. Just look at Amalfi shimmering under a full moon)
