Spend some time at Sorrento's principal shopping destination to purchase clothes and lemon-based souvenirs and to join locals for their early evening stroll.

Go on a shopping expedition and search for Italian and international designer clothes and shoes. Pop into shops selling lemon-themed souvenirs including limoncello liqueur. Sorrento's fresh and zesty lemons are among the country's most well-known citrus fruits.

Browse shops selling ceramics, handmade sandals, home furnishings and wood inlay products. Take refreshments in one of the cafés and watch street life pass by your window. Then continue your shopping trip in the attractive warren of narrow lanes that branch off the Corso Italia.

Wander back to the Corso and into Sorrento Cathedral, a Roman Catholic church from the 10th century. It was rebuilt in Romanesque style in the 16th century following an invasion by the Turks in 1558. Marvel at the gorgeous centuries-old paintings including 18th-century depictions of the Assumption and of the saints the cathedral is dedicated to, Philip and James. View marble remains from the primitive 10th-century cathedral. Other highlights include 14th-century marble bas-reliefs, numerous chapels and a bell tower.

Make a point of coming back to the Corso Italia later in the day to join the locals for their passeggiata, the traditional pre-dinner evening stroll. Stay in this central street to dine its bars, cafés and restaurants or those lining the old town's streets. Additional dining options are to be found at the Piazza Tasso, the main square. After dinner, treat yourself to an ice cream from one of the shopping street’s gelaterias.

Corso Italia is in the heart of Sorrento close to major attractions such as the Basilica di Sant'Antonino and Villa Comunale Park. Being a compact city, you'll probably be able to walk here easily from your accommodation. If not, come by bus or drive and park for a fee in nearby parking garages.
