CAPRI, ITALY
CAPRI AND ANACAPRI TOWN WONDERS
Capri, Italy epitomizes Mediterranean splendor across its sun-drenched landscape, rising dramatically from the deep blue expanses of the Tyrrhenian Sea. In the high-altitude town of Anacapri, narrow streets open to cultural sanctuaries like the Chiesa di San Michele Arcangelo, home to an intricate, vibrant majolica floor mosaic depicting the Garden of Eden. The lively lower village of Capri Town exudes effortless luxury, decorated with ornate wrought iron gates and elegant ceramic benches that flank manicured walking paths. Lush cliffside retreats like the Gardens of Augustus offer sweeping, panoramic vistas.
