Ischia, Campania

Ischia is a town and one of the six comuni on Ischia island, in the Tyrrhenian Sea. With a population of about 18,000, it is the largest settlement on the island.

Administratively, it is part of the Metropolitan city of Naples, in the Campania region of Southern Italy.

It is famed for its thermal baths due to the volcanic nature of the island.

Overview
The town is formed by two distinct boroughs, called "Ischia Porto" and "Ischia Ponte". The latter was named after an ancient wooden bridge (in Italian language, ponte) which, until the 18th century, connected it to the Aragonese Castle.
