Il paradiso: L'isola di Capri

The Villa San Michele in the upper left corner, the Piazetta in the lower left and the Grotta Azzurra in the middle

In the end of September and the beginning of October of 2006, we made a high school trip to South Italy (We studied Italian).
I can tell you, the places we visited are some of the most beautiful places I've ever been to. Naples, Pompeii, Sorrento, Positano and so... and the Capri Island.

It's a paradise: the beautiful sea, the groves, the houses. There are two towns on the island: Capri and Anacapri.

Off the northwestern coast there is a cave in the sea called the Blue Grotto. The sunlight passes through the entrance of the cave and illuminates its inside with the azure reflection of the sea. Tourists could go inside by row-boats until recently, 'cause the rising sea level makes it dangerous to go inside now.
Such a beautiful place, I was lucky I could go inside.

The other main sight of the island is the Villa San Michele, a villa built around the 1900s by a Swedish physician. The villa has a gorgeous garden (loggia) and a breathtaking view to the Capri harbour. He knew something, right?

Date: September - October 2006
