Here you can’t renounce to walk down the beach along the pedestrian area and once reached the sea level you can admire one of best sights you have ever seen.

The fame of Positano is not so old also because it became famous only after the Second World War as a refuge for people staying in Sorrento.

Then the citizens have been really clever to move the world’s attention on its natural beauties in order that Positano became one of the most popular tourist destinations of Italy.

This action has been made easy also thanks to the so many artists coming here for vacation and which then later on became the best promoters of this area with their songs, poems, movies and paintings.

Inside there is an amazing scenery of stalactites and stalagmites completed with a special light generated by the solar rays passing through the natural entrance laying under the sea level.

This light has a special green colour so nice to give the name to the whole grotto.

Amalfi is also known for the local paper called Bambagina.

This paper is thicker than the standard paper and they make it just using old rags.

In Amalfi there is the last still working paper factory and another became a museum, so there is all necessary to understand the old process for this special paper manufacture.
