On the Blue Island, famous throughout the world for its enchanting Blue Grotto, there is also a small reptile with a characteristic blue-green color which on its even darker back takes on an intense cobalt blue hue: it is the blue lizard of Capri, the Podarcis siculus coeruleus formerly Lacerta coerulea faraglionensis, which is an endemic subspecies of the field lizard.
The imagination of the contemporary traveler gets lost in the alleys, after crossing Piazza del Plebiscito, touching the Royal Palace, the San Carlo Theater, and Via Toledo, aiming here and there at the surprising green patches of Capodimonte, the vegetable gardens and the Posillipine parks and the coastal cliffs of yellow tuff.
