The dark, dreary days of autumn have officially taken over the UK, but luckily we can all get a taste of it via Harry Styles' "Golden" music video. The new video gives off a "serious" Italian vibe with its golden tones and rocky hillsides, but where was Harry Styles' "Golden" filmed?
According to Rolling Stone , Styles shot the video on Italy's Amalfi Coast, and it turns out my Italian instincts were right. More specifically, "Golden" was filmed in the tourist resort of Maiori, home to the largest beach on the Amalfi Coast, according to Italian travel website Summer. Styles was seen filming in the area in September, with a TikTok video showing the singer driving a classic Alfa Romeo along Amalfi Avenue, which runs along the entire length of the coastline. Maiori.
The town of Maiori was founded in Roman times and sits at the mouth of the Regina Mayor river, which flooded every summer in 1954, destroying most of Italy's ancient buildings. The town was almost completely rebuilt, but the collegiate church of Santa Maria a Mare, which dates back to the 13th century, remains intact. The town is also the beginning and end of the Lemon Trail, which is also featured in the music video.
Another trail that offers views of Stairs is the Valle dei Mulini Hike (Elite Daily), which according to travel website 10 Adventures is "one of the easiest hikes on the Amalfi Coast". The testing site is surrounded by old buildings, lemon trees and waterfalls. Absolute paradise.
So once travel returns to "normal" I think Myroy will see an influx of visitors to Amalfi Boulevard. Or even before that. I mean, come on, this place is definitely worth a two-week quarantine.
