Magic Lantern slide circa 1900 hand coloured. Titled Cities and places of interest in the Mediterranean.33. â€”SORRENTO PROM CAPODIMONTE. Sorrento presents to the traveller who gazes upon it for the first time the ideal Italian seaside resort. Situated amongst the most lovely groves of oranges and lemon trees, and with precipitous hills rising behind it, whilst, at the bottom of the. cliffs on which it is placed, the Mediternaples,ranean lies, it would be difficult to name any spot that more appeals to the sense of beauty. It is the fashion now for people who are tired of the noise and heat of Naples to frequent Sorrento, and here, either in the charming little villas which1it contains or in its excellent hotels, to find that rest and tranquility which it would be impossible to obtain in the great city near it. â€œIn the winter it is crowded with tourists of all nations, and even in the summer the sea breezes render it sufficiently cool to be inhabitable with ease. Capodimonte is a small suburb of the small spot, and it was here that Tasso lived.
