Naples

Welcome to Naples!

Naples, the capital of Campania and a former capital of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, is a vibrant center of history, art, Mediterranean culture, and gastronomy. Nestled along the stunning Gulf of Naples, the city is famously overlooked by the imposing silhouette of Mount Vesuvius. Unlike the river-crossed plains of the north, Naples is defined by its dramatic coastline and its vertical urban landscape, where historic neighborhoods climb from the sea up toward the volcanic hills.

If you have time to explore beyond the historic center, we highly recommend visiting the National Archaeological Museum (MANN) and the Charterhouse of San Martino. The Archaeological Museum, home to one of the world’s most significant Roman collections, is easily accessible via the "Art Stations" of Metro Line 1. Meanwhile, the Charterhouse of San Martino sits atop the Vomero hill and can be reached from the city center via the historic funiculars, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the city and the sea.

Our journey begins in Piazza del Plebiscito, Naples’ grandest square, surrounded by remarkable landmarks like the Royal Palace and the Basilica of San Francesco di Paola, all waiting to be discovered. Enjoy your visit!
