About Neapel

Leidenschaftlich und chaotisch unter dem Vesuv: Neapel ist die Heimat der Pizza und das Tor nach Pompeji, Capri und zur Amalfiküste.

Das historische Zentrum, ein dichtes Straßenraster, das die alten Griechen anlegten, ist eine Welt aus Kirchen, Straßenschreinen und zwischen Balkonen gespannter Wäsche. Spaccanapoli schneidet schnurgerade hindurch, die Via San Gregorio Armeno ist gesäumt von Krippenwerkstätten, und die Cappella Sansevero birgt den erstaunlichen Verschleierten Christus. Unterirdisch enthüllen Tunnel und Zisternen die griechische und römische Stadt darunter.

Top-ranked sights in Neapel: Mt. Vesuvius (Monte Vesuvio), Via dei Tribunali, Naples Historic Center (Napoli Centro Storico).
