Sorrento is the land of lemons! This is a destination where cheerful citrus adorns every piece of women’s clothing and is prominently featured in local cuisine. Everywhere you look, lemons add a pop of yellow to the azure landscapes before you. When you’re in town, don’t miss the chance to visit a historic lemon grove in Sorrento.
When you experience the fragrant zing that permeates the Amalfi air — from limoncello to lemon delights — your tastebuds will thank you. When I took a trip to the Amalfi Coast, I knew I had to visit a lemon grove. “Lemons are everything you can see,” a local Neapolitan friend told me. Their origins are not European, though. The cultivation of lemons began in the mid-12th century during the Song Dynasty in China.
