The Residence Le Terrazze is located about 48 km from NAPLES, capital city of Campania. Nowadays an active commercial and industrial center, with a pronounced tourist vocation, boasting one of the foremost Mediterranean ports. Naples has a rich architectural and monumental heritage, with superb examples of the Gothic and Baroque, and an extraordinary collection of ancient remains coming from nearby Roman centers such as Pompeii and Herculaneum, currently housed in the National Archaeological Museum. Among the most important remains, the early Christian catacombs of St. Gennaro and St. Gaudioso, the Baptistery of St. Giovanni in Fonte, from the Constantine period, the medieval Castel Nuovo, with its splendid Triumphal Arch, considered one of the greatest expressions of Southern Italian Renaissance art, the cathedral, the churches of St. Chiara and St. Lorenzo Maggiore should not be missed. Finally, the cookery, with outstanding seafood dishes, pressed pork meats, dairy produce and sweets and highly prized wines is well worth honoring. The Residence Le Terrazze is located about 29 km from POMPEII. A small town in the Province of Naples, located on one of the slopes of Vesuvius, modern Pompeii, developed around the sanctuary founded in 1876 by Bartolo Longo, stands right next to the ancient settlement, buried by the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD. The old city, growing out of the fusion of various Oscan centers, perhaps at the end of the seventh century BC, received an influx from neighboring Greek settlements, was later occupied first by the Etruscans and then the Samnites. The city, after centuries of oblivion, was rediscovered at the end of the sixteenth century. The excavations, began in 1748 on the orders of Charles of Bourbon, and were conducted ever more rigorously during the nineteenth century, since then they have not been interrupted again. About three fifths of its entire area has been unearthed, with more than 900 buildings uncovered, nowadays together with Herculaneum and Stabiae it makes up the most extraordinary available evidence of daily life, as well as of the public and private buildings of the ancient world. The majority of the unearthed finds are displayed in the National Archaeological Museum of Naples. CAPRI Opposite the Sorrento peninsula, only 5 km. from Punta Campanella, lies the isle of Capri, one of the most fascinating places in the Province of Naples and the whole of Italy. Divided into two districts of Capri and Anacapri and with the quaint villages of Marina Grande, around the harbor and Marina Piccola, the isle has a prevalently mountainous landscape, with two massifs - Mount Tiberio, to the east and Mount Solaro to the west. The exceptional wealth of natural beauty, the stunning scenery, the extraordinary enchantment of its landscape, together with the modernity and efficiency of its accommodation and bathing structures, explain Capri*s unending allure and fame.

With volcanic origins, it has prevalently mountainous terrain, with Mount Epomeo the highest peak, reaching 788 m.

Today the island is divided into 6 village areas: Ischia, which is the most important center, with two wards Ischia Ponte, the old sea village, and Ischia Porto, the most modern and exclusive area. Then, Forio, Barano, Casamicciola Terme, Lacco Ameno and Serrara Fontana.
