Positano.. an Italian gem on the Almafi coast

Arabiaweather.com - Ismail Qasimi - The city of Positano , with its colorful buildings, looks like a jewel hanging on the mountain slopes of the Italian Almafi coast, a very beautiful and charming town that is considered one of the most beautiful and romantic tourist places in Italy.

The city is characterized by its mild climate, which allows you to visit it in all seasons, but the period between April and October is the best, and summer is the peak of the annual season because it is a coastal city.

Positano is located to the south of the Italian city of Naples on the well-known Almafi coast, and opposite the city there are the famous Lugali Islands mentioned in Homer's Odyssey.

It is very easy to reach this outstanding city, due to its proximity to Naples Airport, but it is better to take buses or taxis from the airport to reach the city, due to the difficulty of driving in the rugged and unpaved mountain road and the lack of parking.

In addition to taxis and buses linking the cities of Sorrento and Salerno, there is also the possibility to reach Positano by water ferries from these two cities in addition to Almafi towards Positano.

For the aforementioned reasons, walking will be the best way to get around in Positano, especially since the city includes many well-groomed walking paths that pass ancient and colorful buildings before reaching the beach.

As for shopping in Positano, it can be said that the city is famous locally for being a wonderful spot that includes a number of shops and stores specialized in displaying the latest products, especially shoes.
