After visiting Anacapri, we stopped in the heart of the town of Capri, Piazza Umberto I, affectionately called Piazzetta, bordered on one side by the Town Hall’s Clock Tower, and on the other by the Chiesa di San Stefano.

The Piazzetta is quite crowded and cramped, previously serving as a market where fish, vegetables, and meat were sold.

At one point, a young man took the initiative to put out a few tables from his bar right in the center of the square, followed then by other islanders who opened their own businesses, and from that moment on, the Piazzetta became the center of social life on the island, becoming famous among both locals and visitors.

I wandered at will through the elegant streets with expensive shops, cafes, discovering a very beautiful and chic little town, with white, quaint, and elegant buildings.
