Capri, Itália
The island of Capri is often referred to as southern Italy's finest jewel and it is one of the loveliest and most popular tourist destinations in the country. It was one of Italy's hot spots for celebrities and intellectuals in the 1960's. Capri lies about three miles off the coast of Naples, boasting rocky cliffs, white beaches, charming villas, olive groves, fragrant lemon trees, narrow winding roads, garden terraces filled with flowers, and stunning views of the sea. And of course it enjoys an amazingly mild climate. The marvelous coastline of Capri, whose cliffs plunge right to the sea in many places, is spotted with innumerable caves, surrounded by reefs whose shapes suggest unbelievable formation. One of Capri's most famous attractions is the Grotta Azzurra, or Blue Cave, a 60-metre-long, 25-metre-wide cavity. Visitors may reach the island by hydrofoil or by ferry. Capri has two main towns: Capri Town, on the eastern half of the island and Anacapri, a steep climb uphill from Capri Town. Upon arrival at the dock, one can ride the tramway up to Capri Town with the famous Piazzetta (Piazza Umberto I) in the center of town. Essentially an outdoor lounge, packed day and night and filled with tables, it is an excellent place to shop or have a drink. A walk around town features superb garden terraces, historic churches, and villas. In Anacapri one may take a lift to Monte Solaro, the highest spot on the island, and enjoy an awe-inspiring view of the Bay of Naples and Mt. Vesuvius.
