Capri, Island municipality in Gulf of Naples, Italy
The limestone island spans 4 square kilometers with steep cliffs rising from the Tyrrhenian Sea to an elevation of 142 meters.
Emperor Augustus initiated the construction of temples, villas, and aqueducts in the first century BC, establishing Capri as a Roman imperial residence.
The central Piazza Umberto I functions as the heart of local life, where residents gather among limestone buildings for social activities and celebrations.
Visitors reach the island through regular ferry connections from Naples and Sorrento, with trips operating every 30 minutes during peak season.
The Marina Piccola port contains natural stone formations that rise vertically from the Mediterranean waters, creating the three Faraglioni rock pillars.
