Ischia's Must-See Wonders

Ischia, the largest island in the Gulf of Naples, is defined by its volcanic geology and extensive thermal activity. This selection features the 15th-century Aragonese Castle, connected to the island by a stone bridge, and Mount Epomeo, the island’s highest peak. It highlights the botanical diversity of Giardini La Mortella and the archaeological significance of the Museo Archeologico di Pithecusae, which houses artifacts from one of the earliest Greek colonies. The list also includes the thermal baths of Poseidon and the natural hot springs of Sorgeto.
