The Roman Emperor Caesar Augustus was the first to discover the
charm of the island of Capri when he visited the island in 29 BC. This
Mediterranean jewel situated just off the coasts of Naples and Salerno
has often been described in famous lyric poetry due to its beauty,
the cobalt blue sea that surrounds it, the fragrance of flowers
and its peaceful charm. During the 19th century the island's magic
charm began to attract visitors, and soon it became the favourite
seasonal residence of foreign artists, writers and poets. Amongst
contemporary writers, one in particular has remained a symbol of
Capri: the Swede Axel Munthe with his magnificent villa at Anacapri.
Capri

beauty, crystal-clear blue sea, fantastic cliffside beaches, mild Mediterranean climate, picturesque car free streets, the world

great number of charming hotels. Not to forgot the local cuisine
based on the daily fishing catch that can be tasted in romantic
