On the southwest coast of Italy, the city of Naples reigns as a compendium of centuries of history, art and culture. Along with a huge architectural heritage, the streets reveal a vital city on a human scale, somewhat chaotic with clothes hanging on the balconies, and indulging in a certain romantic decadence. Inhale the atmosphere in the neighborhood of Sccanapoli. It is said that in Naples you can taste the best pizza in the world, and maybe that's where it was invented.

Its historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In Naples you can stay in dream hotels that occupy old villas and palaces.

The castles and churches are testimony to its greatness. The Basilica, for example, and the Convent of Santa Clara with its surprising cloister of decorated tiles and the Cathedral. The Castel dell'Ovo on the islet of Megaride stands impenetrable in the Gulf of Naples. Surrounded by mountains, from any point of the city the Mount Vesuvius -volcano is still active and ever present.

Nearby is the ancient Roman city of Pompeii, with its wonderful frescoes and cobblestone streets. Buried by the eruption of Vesuvius in 76 AD, it was rediscovered by archaeologists in the 18th century.
