Ravello offers the visitor who is willing to have a profound approach to the territory he is visiting an extraordinary variety of traces telling about a history of almost two thousand years. Every interest finds here something that can satisfy it: civil, religious, defensive or contemporary architecture. No one will leave disappointed after visiting the churches or villas, from which one can grasp the unique spectacle of the landscape transformed by man to survive in this coastal area. The most evident transformations, those of the terraced areas, underline how the landscape of the entire Amalfi Coast was conceived by the ancient inhabitants as a balanced system, where each element (the forest, the terraces, the water channels, the urban centers and the sea) created a symbiotic bond with others in order to ensure life for the entire system.
