Main Touristic attractions in Anacapri
Anacapri, or “The Capri of above”, as it was named by Greeks.
This beautiful village has its own municipality. Inhabited since the roman
times, as witnessed by numerous remains, Anacapri had its greatest time
between the 19th and 20th century when it became a great escape for many
European artists who came to spend their holidays and to get inspiration.

A few of the most popular attractions are
Casa Rossa
The Casa Rossa (the Red House) in Anacapri is home to the "L'Isola
Dipinta" art collection owned by the town. The collection comprises 31
paintings from the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. The
Casa Rossa is also home to 3 Roman statues that were found at the bottom
of the Grotta Azzurra in 1964.

Monte Solaro Cableway
An impressive limestone formation and the highest point on Capri (1,932
feet), Monte Solaro affords gasp-inducing views toward the bays of Naples
and Salerno. A 12-minute chairlift ride will take you right to the top,
which is a starting point for a number of scenic trails on the western
side of the island, most particularly down the slope to the lovely area
around Santa Maria a Cetrella.

La Migliera
The current road retraces the ancient route of the Roman road which from
Capodimonte, the limit of the Graeco-Roman staircase, crossed the higher
part of the territory of Anacapri to reach the Belvedere overhanging the
Tuoro and Limmo creeks. The Limmo creek culminated in Punta Carena and the
Lighthouse.
How to reach:
From Piazza Vittoria in Anacapri, follow Via Caposcuro, close to the
chair-lift for Mount Solaro (40 mins.).
