Tour to Naples

What is the trip about

Piazza del Plebiscito is the symbol of the Neapolitan city, home to very important concerts and a meeting place for the Neapolitans. A real must for tourists who plan their stay in the Campania region. Within the 25 thousand square meters that surround the area, some of the most important buildings in Naples are “set” like diamonds: the classic colonnade of the church of San Francesco di Paola and the Royal Palace, which can be visited in all its splendor .

If you want your stay in Naples not to resemble a romance, but you want to fully know the metropolis of Campania, then you can not avoid visiting the Spaccanapoli district, the soul of the city and representation of the real life of the Neapolitans. The district takes its characteristic name from the road that, from the Quartieri Spagnoli to Forcella, literally cuts the area in half for about 2 km. Spaccanapoli cohabit quite old buildings, monuments of the highest historical importance, all the fragrances and vivacity of the Partenopei. Immerse yourself totally in a “split” of Neapolitan life.

The mystery hovers, inscrutable, inside the mystical Museo Cappella Sansevero, one of the attractions most targeted by tourists in Naples. A successful mix of religious beliefs and esotericism surrounds the sumptuous interiors of the building, famous above all for hosting the Veiled Christ, a sculptural work of incomparable beauty created by Giuseppe Sanmartino. Visiting the museum, however, you will discover that there is still so much more to see, study, understand; other from which to remain, deeply, fascinated.

It is the oldest still active theater in Europe, as well as one of the Italian theatrical institutions the famous San Carlo of Naples. Opera, ballet, spectacular performances take place inside the sumptuous attraction, one of the unmissable destinations to visit in the city of Naples. Whether you are passionate or new to the industry, let yourself be transported within the magical universe of San Carlo, perhaps grasping the opportunity to attend one of the countless events on the calendar.

This extraordinary museum, visited in Naples, was born thanks to the surprising decision of Carlo di Borbone to reconvert his hunting lodge, located in the woods of Capo di Monte, in a palace-museum. It was 1738 and today we thank the sovereign for this sensible choice. The museum, structured in 3 floors, houses inside important works belonging to the Farnese Collection donated to Borbone by his mother, later expanded with more recent pieces. From Raphael to Botticelli, to the most recent paintings by Goya, Burri and to the pop art works by Warhol, numerous masterpieces are housed in the sumptuous rooms of the Museo di Capodimonte.

It is one of the undisputed symbols of the city the Castel Nuovo, known in the world with the name of Maschio Angioino. Five imposing towers make up this fortress, as striking on the outside, as it is interesting inside. The Sala dei Baroni hosts the meetings of the Neapolitan Municipal Council, while near the attraction you can visit the majestic Galleria Umberto I, a nineteenth-century shopping gallery built in Art Nouveau style.

The city of Naples is devoted to the only, inimitable San Gennaro. The Chapel and the Treasury that belonged to the Saint from the “yellow face” (the most famous statue of San Gennaro is made, in fact, in gilded silver) are carefully preserved in the famous Cathedral of Naples. Inside this elegant religious building are also the paintings of Luca Giordano depicting the Apostles and frescoes by Domenichino. And ‘the Treasure of San Gennaro, however, the number one attraction of the Duomo: a collection of relics, objects, pieces in silver.
