Villa Rufolo is a beautiful garden and historic site right off the main square in Ravello, next to…read morethe church and near the tunnel you walk through when entering town. The grounds have some amazing views, beautiful gardens, and really interesting old architecture. A lot of it feels almost like very well-maintained ruins, which gives the whole place a lot of character. You can also climb up the tower for some great views over Ravello and the surrounding coastline. Inside, there are a number of art exhibits, including music-related installations, projections, and some other pretty unusual modern art. Some of it was a little weird for my taste, but it was still interesting to walk through, and there is plenty of history throughout the property as well. The gardens were probably my favorite part. Everything was very well kept, and there are some beautiful overlooks throughout the grounds. There were definitely plenty of tourists around, but it never felt overwhelmingly crowded when we visited. They were also setting up for the summer music and symphony events, which looked like it would be an incredible setting for a concert. Overall, Villa Rufolo is definitely worth visiting while in Ravello. Beautiful views, gardens, architecture, and plenty to explore right in the center of town.

Along the north, this piazza is hemmed in by a walkway and terrace between a few five-star hotels: the Bellevue Syrene Hotel on the northwest, and Hotel Tasso and Hotel Tramontano on the east. Hotel Continental on the west, on the south by the Istituto Superiore Polispecialistico S.Paolo (polytechnic college). The center is raised on a small hill up a flight of stairs, a monument of winged Victory personified, memorializing the fallen Sorrento soldiers from WWI, by sculptor Francesco Jerace. The names of those commemorated are inscribed in white marble around the base of the statue. There's a secondary monument in the northeast quadrant of the park, a bust of Maxim Gorky, Russian writer and proponent of socialism. Around the park are about a dozen trees providing shade. Bench areas are available for sitting and enjoying a relaxing break from the day and the surrounding view. I enjoyed 20 minutes here watching the sunset, the clouds were a bit hazy in the distance and the colors of the pinks, oranges, blues and purples mirrored off the water along the horizon.
