• NAPLES •
"See Naples and then die”, said Goethe when he visited the city during his Grand Tour of Italy, lost in love with its soul and spectacular views.
Like its generous people, Naples offers its vivid beauty to all, proudly sitting on the most amazing gulf in the world.
Naples, Mount Vesuvius and all the islands of the archipelagos, Capri, Ischia and Procida, they all come together like in a vibrant rendering from the landscape painters of the 1800’s. The city captivates you with the charm of its streets, churches, people and food.
Above all, Naples is about food! Pizza, pasta and seafood made with ingredients grown in some of the richest soil on earth. The best start to the day is with an espresso from Café Mexico in Piazza Dante, then a stroll around, visiting Caravaggio’s Flagellation of Christ at the Museum and Royal Park of Capodimonte.
In the evening, enjoy an aperitivo while watching the sea, perched on the cliffs of the 17th century Palace of Donn’Anna, where the sea is so close that it seems to enter the rooms. Despite its chaotic beauty, Naples fills you with a great sense of freedom and energy. Its people are proud to be Neapolitan: they know that their city is extraordinary.
«I’m not Italian, I’m Neapolitan! It’s a completely different thing!»
–Sophia Loren
