Local Tips
Most shops close for a long lunch break (riposo) between 1-4pm. Having a basic grasp of Italian is helpful, as English is not widely spoken.

Safety Warnings
Capurso is generally safe, but exercise caution around the train station late at night due to occasional petty theft. Watch for pickpockets during busy events or festivals.
Hidden Gems
Walk the quiet lanes behind the Sanctuary in early morning, visit the local bakery for fresh focaccia, and explore the olive groves on the town's outskirts.
