Atrani is a small, picturesque old village with narrow streets passing between colourful houses built one above the other. Since the village is very small, every square metre is used: some squares and roads are built right on the rooftops of the houses.

Visiting this village won’t take much time, so we recommend stopping here while you are in Amalfi.

The most beautiful view of the village is from the Torre dello Ziro, which you can reach from Amalfi (a little over one hour), and then walk down to Atrani.
