It has some of the world's best opera and theater houses and is often called an open-air museum, due to its many historic statues and monuments. Join families on promenade as the sun sets on the Bay of Naples. View finds from Pompeii and Herculaneum, destroyed by Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D., at the Museo Archeologico Nazionale or revel in the art and architecture of Museo Cappella Sansevero, built in the late 1500s.

At the center of this picturesque square stands the splendid San Domenico Maggiore, the church that was built in 1283 by King Charles II of Angevin.
This is a lively square with lots of restaurants, the Basilica, the monument and lots of people. Good place to hang out. Recommended.

The tradition of representing the Holy Family as true art lives on in this narrow street, which is crowded on both sides with hundreds of artisan workshops with colorful displays of Nativity scenes.
I'd heard about this street and went especially to see it. It did not disappoint, but I was very suprised at how narrow it is and how crowded. Most of the time we were like sardines. The shops are full of wonderful nativitities and all the separate ornaments that allow people to build their own. Nativities with moving parts are very popular and there was a huge variety ranging from about 25 euros well into the hundreds. The seperate ornaments start at about 4 euros for the really tiny ones. If you plan to build your own nativity, take plenty of cash as the variey of ornaments is massive and you won't be able to stop at just the main ones. The street is quite long so if you want to have a really good look in all or most of the shops, you need at least an hour or more, especially if it's really crowded.

A narrow yet longish street with lots of Naples character. Anything from pizzerias and cafes, to laundry hanging at the windows.

The «Art Stations» along Line 1 of the underground in Naples, managed by ANM Azienda Napoletana Mobilità, the public transport company, are the result of a project by the municipal administration in Naples. They have inaugurated a new way of devising transit areas which combines architecture and art. The architectures were designed by internationally famous architects, each station has its own stylistic features and was designed specifically for the area it would serve. At the same time, under the artistic coordination by Achille Bonito Oliva, 200 site specific works of art by 90 protagonists of contemporary art have been placed inside and outside the stations.
Visiting Toledo station on line 1 is a must. The mosaic and lights are an absolute delight and it’s worth taking the underground just to see it.
