Hidden behind a wall in a narrow hallway on Procida, stands an iconic black Fiat 500, as if it were a secret waiting to be discovered. The old car, which once drove through the island's lively streets, now seems to be part of the backdrop of this picturesque corner. It is the perfect reflection of Procida itself: charming, slightly nostalgic and full of surprises. The Fiat 500, a symbol of Italian simplicity and charm, has found its time and place in this peaceful setting, stuck away from the usual hustle and bustle of the island.
Although the car was undoubtedly once used as a means of transport, it is now more of a silent witness to Procida's history. It is a piece of the past carefully hidden from prying eyes, but still exudes that it is part of the soul of the island. The Fiat's black colour contrasts beautifully with the weathered walls and warm tones of the surrounding stones. It seems as if time has stood still here.
This hidden gem offers a glimpse of old Italy, where the simple things say the most. If you look closely, you will discover that Procida is full of hidden treasures like this one, reflecting the charm of the island in a very intimate way.
