Description

Award winning photograph showcased at the prominent Pizziera Ortica(awarded 2015 Best Italian Restauarant and Best Bar in Orange County)in Costa Mesa, Ca. Photograph taken at the beautiful & quaint Italian village of Minori on the Amalfi Coast, which is a narrow stretch of coastline facing the Tyrrhenian sea and the jewel of the Campania region. It hosts the most striking towns, such as Positano, Amalfi, Ravello, Cetara and Minori, snuggled between cliffs and the sea. Generations have built towns on the steep mountain forming terraces deliberately using every piece of land they had. It is an UNESCO World Heritage site because of its great cultural and natural value, as well as its historical evolution. Most of the land is overgrown with huge lemons, which are the mark of Amalfi. As the lemons were abundant, the Amalfitanians discovered limoncello, a liqueur made from lemons. It is their way of saying: “When life gives you lemons, make limoncello!”. Anyone fascinated by the beauty and richness of the Costiera Amalfitana should not forget to stop in Minori at the foot of the Lattari Mountains. It is a friendly town with special charm recently featured on CNN's "Stanley Tucci: Searching for Italy", where he calls Minori's lemons 'the best in the world'. My trip of a lifetime to Italy was arranged by INTERPRO TRAVEL Service, Inc. Contact: Roberto Torrini. Email: interprotravel@earthlink.net
