Get in touch with your inner romantic
Tour guides will often recount an old legend that Satan brought Jesus to Ravello during His second temptation, to show him the beauty of the world's kingdoms. Today, that beauty hasn't changed; in fact, locals often joke that if you want a girl to marry you, just bring her to Ravello. Indeed, its crumbling gardens and jaw-dropping views have seduced Virginia Woolf, Gore Vidal and DH Lawrence with its romantic old-worldliness, and it will lure you in too - meander through Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone and savor an era long gone. Or simply walk along the coast, high above the jet-setters and sun-seekers in the towns below, and soak in the dramatic scenery that has captivated people for centuries.
