Lets continue with some of the italian cards Theresa sent me.
Located in the region of Campania, Amalfi is the town that gives its name to the Costiera Amalfitana (Amalfi Coast), an important tourist destination together with other towns on the same coast, such as Positano, Ravello and others. Amalfi is included in the UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

The Cathedral of St. Andrew, Amalfi is a highly unique cathedral full of interesting sights. Built in the early 1200s, the cathedral features a dramatic location atop a steep flight of stairs, an Arab-influenced exterior, and the relics of St. Andrew the Apostle in its crypt. Connected to the cathedral is an older basilica (now a small museum) and the fascinating Cloister of Paradise, both containing medieval murals. - in: http://www.sacred-destinations.com/italy/amalfi-cathedral
