The Montepertuso village and his ancient legend

Meeting Point Positano Mulini at 9 am Square return at same place 3 h

DESCRIPTION

There is only one way to know the beauties of this city: walking along the scenic paths. Breathe in the scent of Mediterranean plants for an unforgettable excursion. This charming village is part of the 27 municipalities of the Monti Lattari Regional Park. History, traditions and art make this city the pearl of the Amalfi Coast.

The myth of the Sirens, poems and books by writers and poets who during their stay in Positano praised its beauty and culinary skills of the Mediterranean diet. Anyone who visits this city will bring with them the memory of an unforgettable holiday. The name may derive from Posides, the name of the Roman freedman who built a villa there, or from the Greek "steep land".

There is also a legend according to which the Black Madonna, transported by sea, invoked the navigators saying to them "Pose ,Pose", coming thus landed in the country. The first archaeological evidences date back to the first century BC, when luxurious Roman villas were built on the coast of the Sorrento Peninsula. In Positano one occupied the bay and the other extended over the island of Gallo.

These villas belong to the "dispersed type", that is formed by different structures not grouped together delimited by gardens. During the excursion you can admire some villas of 500 still remained intact, over time. Arrived at the village of Montepertuso we can admire the Church of the Madonna delle Grazie and the story of its legend of this ancient village. Return to Positano center.
