The Aragonese Castle is a masterpiece of medieval architecture. Passing by Ischia Ponte, don’t forget to stroll along the bridge that connects the castle to the island and enjoy the many street artists that perform there.
4
Fontana is smallest town in Ischia, and it is also the highest one because it is on top of Mount Epomeo. From here you can admire a 360º view of the Mediterranean Sea, The Bay of Naples and the island of Capri.
5
Mount Epomeo is the only mountain on the Island of Ischia. It is made primarily of tuff and volcanic stone, this causes the territory to be very fertile and full of greenery.
6
The "Fungo" is a unique rock in the sea in front of the town Lacco Ameno, that has the shape of a mushroom. It has been sculpted in time by the strength of the wind and the waves.
7
Sant’Angelo is a peaceful oasis, where cars cannot travel because of its tiny roads. Enjoy from here the sunshine and the breeze that come from sea. It is especially famous for the natural hot springs.
