The Abandoned Mill

by | Dec 11, 2015 | Moments | 10 comments

Valley of the Mills in Sorrento Italy. An abandoned mill rests in a landscape of green.

One of my reasons for visiting Sorrento Italy wasn’t the usual stunning cliffs and seaside views, but the Valley of the Mills which resides further in near Tasso Square. The abandoned mill is easy to miss as it’s tucked away behind the city’s attractions and far below the streets tourists flock to. I had this spectacular view to myself. The structure, almost swallowed in green was bathed in mystery and morning light making it one of the more memorable pieces of architecture on my journey.

    Hi Susan,

    Although I’m old enough to be Sheri’s mother, I am just her good friend. 🙂

    It was serendipitous to meet you, and I hope to see you again, on the Big Island or elsewhere.

    Ah, I’m a little green with envy! I’ve seen pictures of this place before but it’s so rare to stumble upon a travel blogger who’s actually made the trek there. It seems like a magical place, something you never really forget about. Can’t wait to see more from you.
