Praiano
The fishermen cove

A Praiano's ancient name (Pelagium) means "open
sea", infact in this fishermen town the view on the sea and
on Positano and its surroundings is spectacular.
The "Sentiero degli Dei" (Walk of the Gods) is a famous
hike that starts from Praiano and reaches Agerola, giving hikers
the chance to really get the best views of the Amalfi Coast.
This town started developing in the XII century and then specialized
in production of the "filo torto", linnen, coral and anchevies.
If you visit Praiano make sure you don't miss San Luca, a beautyful
church with its typical maiolica tiles dome and paintings of famous
artists of the past.
Praiano is surely one of the most genuine corners of the Amalfi
Coast, away from the most touristy areas and rich with history,
culture, views and comforts.
