10 photos celebrate the beauty of the Amalfi Coast

Stretching along the southern edge of Italy’s Sorrentine Peninsula, the Amalfi Coast is a stunning stretch of cliffs, pristine beaches, scenic roads and white-washed homes.

And if the pictures in the gallery above are anything to go by, you might be packing for a spur of the moment holiday to the Mediterranean pretty soon!

In 1997 the Amalfi Coast was officially recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage site and now to celebrate the brilliance and unparalleled beauty of this spectacular corner of the world, Travel + Leisure has put together a photo essay.

To see the images, scroll through the gallery above.
