The ideal way to see Capri is taking it slow; savour the moments, find the time to contemplate the beautiful views of the island and breathe the air of the beautiful sea that surrounds it. For this reason, if you are able to spend the night in Capri, you will have more time to take in the beauty of the island. And, if you have already followed our tips on what to see in a day, now let’s discover together what to see in Capri in two days!
Often the fame of the Faraglioni ends up obscuring this other jewel of Capri but, in reality, the Natural Arch has nothing to envy, both in terms of beauty and of importance. It is the surviving part of a large underwater cave, whose opening has over time been enlarged by atmospheric agents. Nearby you can enjoy one of the most beautiful views of the island, going from Punta Campanella to the Amalfi Coast.
A little curiosity for cinephiles: from the Natural Arch you can admire Villa Malaparte, typical example of Italian rationalist architecture by Curzio Malaparte. It was chosen as a location for some scenes by the director Jean Luc Godard, for his film Il Disprezzo, which also sees on stage a very young Brigitte Bardot.
Via Tragara is an essential walk for those who want to know what to see in Capri in two days! It has ancient origins: it led to the luxurious Augustan villa Suetonius tells us about. Today, passing by some of the finest hotels and the most important literary villas on the island, you will finally arrive at the picturesque panoramic viewpoint, where you can enjoy the splendid spectacle of nature, while sitting on comfortable benches.
The history of Villa Lysis is linked to the figure of the noble Parisian poet and aesthete Jacques Fersen, who chose Capri as his existential exile. He decided to call his home Villa Lysis in reference to Plato’s dialogue, Lysis, which deals with homosexual friendship and love. The interior, in eclectic style, is a wonder for the eyes of the visitor; and the wonder continues outside thanks to the garden La Gloriette, where you can admire all the trees and flowers dear to the Count. In addition, during the summer, the Villa often hosts theater performances, exhibitions, concerts and dance performances.
The Charterhouse of San Giacomo, a true jewel of island architecture, was built in the fourteenth century at the behest of Giacomo Arcucci, the Count of Capri. The fourteenth-century layout of the first cloister, also called Chiostro Piccolo, was followed, in the sixteenth century, by the Chiostro Grande, built with limestone pillars. The architectural structure of the Certosa, with its cross, pavilion and barrel vaults is the most illustrious example of the Caprese style. Take time to visit the Diefenbach Museum inside, dedicated to the German Symbolist painter who lived on Capri.
Casa Rossa is an eclectic building in Anacapri with a characteristic Pompeian red colour. Built in 1876 by American Colonel John Clay MacKowen, it is an architectural jewel that describes the style of the period and inside you can see a beautiful collection of paintings of the nineteenth and early twentieth century. Furthermore, in the Red House are also kept the four statues of sea gods found by Capri divers in 1966 in the Blue Grotto. For all these reasons, the Red House, along with the other beautiful destinations that we have reported, are definitely worth a tour if you can stay in Capri in two days!
