The historic center abounds in contrasts with narrow streets criss-crossed by clothes hung to dry, elaborate baroque churches while nearby kitchens emanate aromas. Walk around the busy alleys and reach stunning piazza del Plebiscito, flanked by the San Carlo Theatre, Italy’s largest and oldest venue. Directly across from San Carlo is Galleria Umberto I, a shopping center and social hub where locals like to congregate for a piping hot espresso. Walk to the seaside and visit the imposing Castel dell’Ovo, now surrounded by quaint cafès and traditional restaurants in the lovely fisherman’s burough. The Capodimonte Museum is a cultural hub for all: Rafael, Titian, Caravaggio and El Greco works are always on display, while the more modern Madre Museum hosts a permanent collection of contemporary art and exhibits. Discover what lies underneath with a tour of underground Naples hiding catacombs, cisterna, and acqueducts sprawled over 600 thousand square meteres. Churches abound in Naples so visit the cathedral of St. Gennaro is famous for the miracle of the Saint, when his blood turns liquid against his relics. Don’t miss walking through Via San Gregorio Armeno, riddled with artisanal workshops where the famous nativity figurines are created.
