Chiesa di San Salvatore de' Birecto Review

The main church of Amalfi, St. Andrea's Cathedral, is a very beautifully preserved church. Whether it is a magnificent appearance or a beautiful interior, it is not so similar to other churches in this church kingdom. The Amalfi Church itself is not very large, only an entrance facing the main street, and only the facade looks like the cathedral, and it is a residential building bypassing from the side. The first entrance to the church is not surprising, the corridor has an Arab exotic atmosphere, let people have a trace of association with the Amalfi Maritime Republic of the year. The temple is simple, hanging the crucifix of Jesus, and the temple is almost completely white except for the shrine and some religious prints, which makes people think that this is the overall style of the Amalfi church. On the contrary, when you enter the basement of this church, you really feel that the illusion of simplicity and whiteness deceives you, and the real style here is extremely exquisite and clever. The basement on the ground floor, from ceiling to floor, is decorated with complicated paintings, and every inch of the roof and wall is no longer white. From the basement and back to the ground, finally to the main hall of the cathedral, where the grandeur of the maritime republic of Amalfi is displayed. Constrained by geographical conditions, the architecture here is unlikely to pursue grand scale as in Rome Florence, but the baroque omnipresent and complex details create a strong religious atmosphere. Out of the church and watch the streets swirl around, as if separated.
