Positano in history

The ancient Romans had selected this land as summer residence building luxuriant villas all around, some of which is possible to enter only from the sea. This is a huge evidence of the enormous interest linked to the Campania coast and in particular to the Amalfitan coast. Is possible to criticare them? After this period Positano history has known many unlucky moments until the huge emigration of its citizens towards America. From the beginning of the last century many travelers have stopped by in this village and since when a lot of people did, slowly making Positano a fantastic touristic cultural destination for many visitors. This cultural atmosphere has brought between the lilltle streets and alleys of this village many Italian writers and artists (Burrati e Moravia are only two of the many) and also a lot of writers from: Germany, Russia and many different countries around the globe. This elite tourism, during the passing of the years, has developed the interest for Poasitano around the Europe, in America and also in the far away Oriental countries, transforming this land in one of the most apreciate touristic destination of the globe.
