Torre village \/ Belvedere Mortella \/ church of San Michele <\/b>(2.00 hours low difficulty)<\/p>

The village of Torre along the Sentiero dei Limoni is set in one of the most fascinating places in the Amalfi Coast<\/b>, kissed by the sun in a panoramic position on the promontory that divides the beautiful cities of Maiori and Minori. If, for a moment, we decide to move away from their beaches, we will discover a place where time passes slowly and the smells and stones give us suggestions from the past.The ancient road that connects Maiori and Minori was in the past one of the most busy areas of the Amalfi Coast, mainly due to the cultivation of lemons. In the village of Torre there is one of the areas of maximum diffusion and quality of lemon, which has been around for many centuries; some documents of the seventeenth century that remind us, in fact, that "the most frequent fruits of its territory are lemons and limoncelli". The "path of lemons<\/b><\/u>\u201dTherefore, it will make you touch the tradition and the history that the scent of citrus still tells us today, closely observing all the hard work that revolves around the Amalfi sfusato. Throughout the year, and in particular in the harvesting periods between spring and summer, it is possible to witness the phases of lemon growing. Especially in the months from June to August, it is not uncommon to meet men carrying heavy crates of lemon, the so-called "baskets" of almost 60 kg, on their backs or on mules, and to notice the care that the Amalfi Coast lemon growers dedicate to their precious fruits.<\/p>

The path can be done in both directions, the path is largely paved and in both directions there are several stairs to climb (about 1,500)
We begin our walk along Via Lama at the end of which we will find, on the right, the stairs to the "Torre Village".<\/p>

At the detour, which on the left leads to the bell tower of the Annunziata, from the Arab - Norman period, you have to continue to the right, directed to Torre - Maiori, on the "Path of the Lemons". We then arrive at the Mortella viewpoint, whose name originates from the presence of myrtle plants: from here you can enjoy a suggestive view of Minori and the coast.<\/p>

Below us the majestic Basilica of S. Trofimena; above the villages Monte with the Church of the Guardian Angels, and Villa Amena with the Romanesque Church dedicated to S. Gennaro of the XII century, with the adjoining Archconfraternity Madonna del Rosario. Walking through the Torre village we come across a portico with a small votive shrine in memory of the faith of its inhabitants.
The route continues in the heart of the Torre Village, with the church dedicated to St. Michael the Archangel. The date of foundation is uncertain but it is certainly older than 936. Inside it has a single rectangular nave, the altar is covered by two pointed arches supported by 4 twisted columns with a sort of Corinthian capitals.<\/p>

A fountain and a bench, under a large plane tree, seem to want to cover the facade of the Church, to the right of which rises a balcony overlooking the Amalfi Coast, with Atrani and Amalfi in the distance, and Ravello appearing above.<\/p>

We enter an avenue lined with oleanders, while the lemons seem to look out from the pergolas. To our left an arched wall in memory of the sighting "tower", from which the toponym Torre may derive. The walk continues and a fountain, at the beginning of a flight of stairs, leads to the Monastery of S. Nicola, but we continue to Maiori and, turning our gaze towards the sea, we see Capo d'orso, the Gulf of Salerno and the horizon the Cilento coast.<\/p>

We are in the center of the San Francesco valley, a little further on and before a small uphill stretch it is possible to glimpse a lemon garden from a gate, a suggestive and emblematic image of peasant culture.
A short downhill stretch begins, at the top, a pergola of overhanging lemons and grapes that overlooks us, in a riot of yellow and green; a few meters and we leave Minori to continue in the municipality of Maiori.<\/p>

We walk the last stretch of the ancient path, while below the valley part of the Vallone San Francesco appears.<\/p>

Via S. Giuseppe now begins with a panoramic stretch that opens towards the blue of the sea. From the belvedere, a window opens onto the city and onto the green and yellow majolica roof tiles of the Collegiate Church of S. Maria a Mare, whose name originates from the statue that in the year 1200 was found on the beach of Maiori. To visit the aforementioned church and the adjoining Museum of sacred art.<\/p>

Continue along via Vena and Via Pedamentina while from above we admire the Mezzacapo Palace, now the Town Hall, and the eighteenth-century gardens designed in the shape of a Maltese cross by the will of the Knight Filippo Mezzacapo.<\/p>

We go into Corso Reginna and the Maiori seafront to visit the Convent of S. Francesco.<\/p>
