Atrani is the smallest municipality in all of Italy — a cascade of houses connected by 'scalinatelle' (tiny staircases), covered passages, and hidden gardens, all preserving its intact medieval structure. This is where Amalfi's Doges were formally invested with power. The Dutch artist M.C. Escher was so struck by its magical light and labyrinthine alleys in 1923 that he depicted Atrani in numerous works. Five minutes from Amalfi, yet a world apart — no tourists, no boutiques, just real life.
