Among tourists, it is popular with a mushroom-shaped reef near the sea.
Volcanoes
There are volcanoes on the island of Ischia: Monte Vezzi (395 m), Trabotti (512 m) and Epomeo (788 m). The last time they woke up was in the 14th century. Now only water vapor and hot thermal springs remind of their past vigorous activity. It is thanks to the latter that a warm holiday is possible at any time of the year. It is not surprising that the inhabitants of this ancient island have learned how to create their own cosmetics and medicines that help cure diseases of the back, upper respiratory tract, neurology and skin diseases.
Story
The period of the Roman Empire is the era of development and prosperity of the island. Here arose the trading city of Aenaria. Today, valuable items have been found at the site of its foundation: bowls and dishes from Tunisia and Algeria. Constant raids in the Middle Ages forced the inhabitants of the city to make observation towers throughout the entire island. Before Ischia became part of a united Italy, it was in the possession of the Napoleonic family. It is known that Giuseppe Garibaldi came here to the island to improve his health with the help of thermal waters.
Transport
If you want to spend time actively, then experts recommend staying at the hotels of the bay: Casamicciola or Ischia Porto. The fact is that from here it is ideal to get to Naples, or.

Aragonese castle (Castello Aragonese)
The Aragonese castle is rightfully considered the main attraction of Ischia, which is picturesquely located on a rocky island off the coast. Initially, the castle grew back in ancient times, but in the Middle Ages it was a pleasant decision to rebuild it. Since then, the Aragonese castle has been connected to the island by a causeway. It should be noted simply the huge size of the building on this small island: the total area of 543 square meters. m, height - 115 m.
Previously, there were 13 churches on the territory of the castle, but they were destroyed by the British in the 19th century. Despite its difficult history, the castle makes only a positive impression. The entrance to the fortress is approximately 11 euros.
The main attraction of the island is the Aragonese castle.

Ravino Gardens (Giardini Ravino)
Ravino Gardens is another place to have a good time. Exotic plants simply amaze tourists. Be careful: there are living cactus sculptures here.
Thermal waters of Ischia
As already mentioned, the thermal waters, like the network of thermal services itself, appeared due to the volcanic origin of the island. Even the ancient Romans knew a lot about the healing effect of water. However, their active development falls on the 16th century, when the study of thermal springs was carried out by the Calabrian physician Giulio Yasolino.
The water is naturally drinkable. There are also springs here that spring right into the sea and, accordingly, are open to everyone. It is known that the largest number of sources is concentrated on the island, and their composition is super saturated: mineral salts, phosphates, sulfates, biocarbonate, bromine, iron and aluminum. Needless to say, water is indispensable in the treatment of skin diseases, neurosis, arthritis, rheumatism, infertility, and metabolic disorders. For many centuries, the Nitrodi spring in the commune of Barano has been famous for its miraculous effect.
There are also saunas a la Roman baths. They are located in natural grottoes and contribute to the overall cleansing of the body. It is worth remembering the restriction: no more than three times a day for 7-8 minutes.
However, one should also remember about contraindications: thermal baths cannot be taken by people who have diseases of the cardiovascular system.
Thermal parks function on the territory of the island, which will help visitors to Ischia to enjoy and spend time to the maximum. The parks have swimming pools with different water temperatures. Experts recommend starting with cooler pools, gradually raising the temperature. It is also recommended to swim in sea water after visiting the pool.

Cities of the island of Ischia
Ischia Porto and Ischia Ponte
Ischia is considered the main city of the island, which, as we already wrote, is divided into two towns: Ischia Porto and Ischia Ponte. Ischia Porto is business as well as cultural heart islands. The main attraction is the port, which began to function in 1853. It is surrounded by houses and cozy restaurants. Boats leave from here to Capri, to Naples, to Procida, Amalfi and Procida. The main street of the city is Via Roma Corso Vittoria Colonna, which is lined with trendy shops, gourmet cafes and restaurants. Along the coast of the city there are beaches that are completely free. Smoothly Ischia Porto passes into another glorious town - Ischia Ponte. The main attraction of this place is the Aragonese castle. The word "ponte", which this place received, is quite understandable: it was the bridge that connected the castle to the island.
Forio (Forio)
Another old City on the west bank islands. It has a rich history: back in the 7th century BC. the Greeks settled here. They built the temple of Venus Chitarskaya. Forio continues to keep traces of the East (Turkish domination), the Saracens and the fierce pirate Ariardeno Barbarossa. It was to protect against the latter that the inhabitants of the city installed the Torrione fortress tower (XV century) and several more lookouts. Today, tourists come there to see the temple of the Madonna the Intercessor, created in the 16th century. Celebrities willingly rest in the city: artists, directors and writers.
Lacco Ameno (Lacco Ameno)
This resort town was in ancient times a Greek colony. In addition to clean water, tourists here celebrate the beauty of pine and citrus groves. Lacco Ameno was famous for its pottery masters, but this art has not been forgotten to this day. The excavations marked the beginning of the opening of the Archaeological Museum. A curiosity for tourists and an object of admiration is a huge mushroom - a bizarre rock. Here is one of the beautiful thermal parks of the island: Negombo Gardens. Poseidon Gardens is a 15-20 minute drive.

Casamicciola Terme
Casamicciola Terme is no different from other cities on the island: there are healing springs, developed infrastructure and, of course, a stunning view. It is located near Ischia Porto and has its own port. In the XVIII century, the Neapolitans built here the thermal center of Pio Monte dela Misericordia. During the earthquake of 1883, the city was badly damaged, so most of the objects had to be rebuilt.
Island cuisine
There is nothing surprising in the fact that it is associated with the Neapolitan. However, there are some peculiarities here, which should be mentioned. One of the popular dishes is the fragrant Iskitan rabbit (coniglio all "ischitana). Many island families traditionally cook it on Sunday. This special breed of "eared" is bred on the island in its natural environment.
Mmm... A wonderful rabbit. Photo cuboimages.it
Well, what island can do without fish? The squids are excellent here. sea urchin, mussels, king mackerel, octopus, tuna.
As for desserts, you should try rum baba, to which ischitan lemon liqueur is added. The Iskitans are simply proud of this sweetness. They are sure that, despite the large number of rum baba recipes, they can really cook it only in Italy on this small proud island.
You can have a snack and taralli - local cookies.
The local wine is also famous outside the island. It differs from all others in its extraordinary aroma, which is created through the use of spices: rosemary, dill and marjoram. We recommend Frassitelli, Ambra and Epomeo. Naturally, you should grab a bottle of Limoncello liqueur as a gift.
on the island
June 29 you can witness a solemn procession thanking the sea for its gifts.
Feast of Saint Anne
It is celebrated annually on July 26th. For many centuries, grouse sailed to the island in boats with their wives and children. Everyone gathered at the Church of St. Anne in Cartaromana Bay. It is believed that Saint Anna patronizes pregnant women. Today, on this day, the inhabitants of the island organize competitions, picnics and a parade of boats pre-decorated with flowers.
August, 26th on the day of St. Alexander, the Iskitans traditionally arrange a procession in typical costumes.
Let us conclude that there is hardly a single tourist who would not like this island, which has managed to preserve a large number of sights and traditions. It cannot be called Green Island”: landscapes will not leave you indifferent, and thermal waters will help restore health and beauty.
