Capri. Terrace of the gardens of Augusto (Terrazza dei Giardini di Augusto)

Finally, we will go to the observation platform (on the map), located on the terrace of a high rock, from where a magnificent panorama opens.

On the left, you can see the complex of the monastery of San Giacomo, founded in 1363 by the Carthusian order.

To the right, mount Tuoro rises 262 meters above sea level. Below and to the right of the top, you can see a building overhanging the slope - this is the Punta Tragara 5* hotel, one of the most exclusive in the world. The hotel has a total of 43 rooms, each of which has a unique interior. From the Windows of the rooms come amazing views, for which guests are willing to pay in high season from 1.5 to 3.5 thousand euros, and rooms need to be booked very well in advance.

In particular, the southern Windows of the hotel overlook the famous Faraglioni di Terra rocks.

Это чудо природы уже нам знакомо по водной прогулке вдоль берегов острова.

Looking down, we will see the stunning azure of the coastal waters and the rock Scoglio Unghia Marina.

Probably, many who have visited the island regret that such wonderful coves can only be reached with mountaineering equipment or by water.

The almost vertical slope is covered with lush vegetation.

It's just amazing how such a riot of greenery holds up on the rocks.
