Port of Salerno

The port area in Salerno is not very attractive, but once you get onto the promenade things are getting much better. There is a historical Old Town near by, which preserved historical sights, full of tiny little passageways and hidden corners. There are some cafes, where you can find something to eat while waiting for the ferry crossing.
