Itinerary
The Royal Palace is one of the four residences that the Bourbons, sovereigns of Naples for two centuries, used during the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. Built in the seventeenth century, it underwent many alterations over time, also due to a fire following which the monumental staircase was built, the belvedere courtyard and the hanging garden. Today it houses the Museum of the historic apartment where you can see not only the royal residence but also the rich collection of works of art that were commissioned by the sovereigns in person.
The National Archaeological Museum of Naples preserves an extraordinary collection of works of art envied around the world. In fact, its rooms host findings from ancient history. Objects from ancient Egypt are part of his collection; finds and frescoes found in Pompeii and Herculaneum after the eruption of Mount Vesuvius; the collection of Roman marble statues and the collection of gems belonging to the Farnese family. Visiting the Archaeological Museum will be like an exciting journey through history.
The Museum of Capodimonte was founded as a hunting lodge of the Bourbons, Neapolitan sovereigns from the beginning of the seventeenth century. Soon it was decided to use the rooms of the building to welcome the works of the Farnese collection, inherited by Carlo di Borbone from the mother. Inside it is possible to contemplate the works of art of famous artists all over the world, Italians and others. Among these it is enough to mention Tiziano, Caravaggio, El Grego, Brueghel the Elder, Parmigiano, Annibale Carracci.

About Naples
Passionate and chaotic beneath Vesuvius, Naples is the birthplace of pizza and the gateway to Pompeii, Capri and the Amalfi Coast.
The historic centre, a dense grid of streets laid out by the ancient Greeks, is a world of churches, street shrines and laundry strung between balconies. Spaccanapoli cuts straight through it, Via San Gregorio Armeno is lined with nativity-scene workshops, and the Sansevero Chapel holds the astonishing Veiled Christ. Underground, tunnels and cisterns reveal the Greek and Roman city below.
Top-ranked sights in Naples: Mt. Vesuvius (Monte Vesuvio), Via dei Tribunali, Naples Historic Center (Napoli Centro Storico).
