their mark pounds like Amalfi and
Ravello are home to many examples of
artistic and architectural excellence in
past oome column temples to Poseidon
Hera and Athena are among the best
preserved of their kind to be found
anywhere in the world until the 1800s

that overland access to the region was
possible only by mule while many oases
of quiet can still be found here
particularly away from tourist centres

irreversibly since then
