Vallone dei Mulini is one of the most incredible historical places in Sorrento. An entire ancient city abandoned by the citiziens when they settled in the actual Sorrento. You can admire these ancient buildings (expecially a big mill), street and bridges covered by a mantle of grass and history. You'll never forget it!

The St James and St Philip's church is the Sorrento's cathedral. Built in the X century, it was partially
destroyed after a terrible pirate invasion in 1558. After that, the bishop Giulio Pavesi succeeded in rebuilding the
church in a baroque style. Only the XIV century entrance, with two beautiful pink marble columns, remained
the same. Inside the church, you can admire a series of bas-reliefs telling the church's history since the
visit of St Peter in 43-44 A.D, the beautiful chapels and the precious marble bas-reliefs made by the great
sculptor Andrea Pisano in 1340.
