Ravello, Hilltop commune in Amalfi Coast, Italy.
Ravello stands 350 meters above sea level on the Amalfi Coast, offering views across the Mediterranean Sea and surrounding mountains through multiple terraces.
The town rose to prominence in the 9th century as part of the maritime Republic of Amalfi, developing into a significant Mediterranean trading center until 1200.
The Villa Rufolo gardens host the annual Ravello Festival, continuing a musical tradition that began when composer Richard Wagner found inspiration there in 1880.
Visitors can reach Ravello by SITA buses from Amalfi town, with the journey covering 7 kilometers along the winding coastal roads.
The Terrace of Infinity at Villa Cimbrone extends over the Gulf of Salerno, decorated with marble busts dating from the 18th century.
