About Napoli

Appassionata e caotica ai piedi del Vesuvio, Napoli è la patria della pizza e la porta d'accesso a Pompei, Capri e alla Costiera Amalfitana.

Il centro storico, una fitta griglia di strade tracciata dagli antichi greci, è un mondo di chiese, edicole votive e panni stesi tra i balconi. Spaccanapoli lo taglia in linea retta, via San Gregorio Armeno è fiancheggiata da botteghe di presepi e la Cappella Sansevero custodisce lo straordinario Cristo velato. Nel sottosuolo, gallerie e cisterne rivelano la città greca e romana sottostante.

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