Binta Robinson is an attorney licensed and active in the District of Columbia Bar. Outside her professional pursuits, Binta Robinson is interested in travel, and she has biked through the Tuscan region of Italy and visited Positano on the Amalfi Coast.
A beautiful town on Italy’s Amalfi Coast, Positano is a popular tourist destination. But it’s not the only place you can visit in this beautiful area to experience a piece of Italian culture. Located in the mountains and tucked in between Positano and Amalfi, the ancient fishing village of Praiano was a summer retreat for Roman emperors in the 1st century. Today, visitors can experience its local beauty, culture, and charm with fewer tourists than in other nearby destinations. A town of just 2,000 permanent residents, Praiano’s two main industries are still artisanal craftsmanship and fishing. But it is the spectacular view that draw most to this town, visible from almost every part of the village. The area is also home to a number of extremely well-preserved historical sites, including the Church of San Gennaro, which dates back to 1588 (and was remodeled in the Baroque style around 1772). In terms of dining, one of the best places to eat in Praiano also happens to be a restaurant named by Travel & Leisure as one of the world’s best restaurants with a view. Il Pirata offers a selection of delicious Italian cuisine, including a sea-urchin linguine, and diners can eat on a terrace built into the rocks overlooking the cove below. |
