Amalfi Town is further out and surrounded by dramatic Cliffs and coastal scenery. The town of Amalfi was once known for its trading power in the Mediterranean between 839 and around 1200. Amalfi is the main village of the coast, referred to by the locals as Costiera Amalfitana, and used to occupy a  high position in medieval architecture. The village has few cobbles, however keep in mind that the famous Cathedral is not accessible for an inside visit, as this is accessed with many stairs.
