What to do and see in Posillipo, Campania: The Best Sights & Landmarks

May 4, 2022 Marianna Hollaway

Romantic Naples, two hours south of Rome, is the largest city in southern Italy. 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.

Parco Archeologico Pausilypon

Pausilypon was the Villa d’otium build by roman knight Publio Vedio Pollio. When Pollio died (15 b.C.) it was given in legacy to the emperor Augustus, becoming an official imperial estate. It is located in one of the most fascinating places in Naples with a fantastic view over the Bay of Naples.The gateway to the villa was given by the monumental Seiano’s cave (a tunnel 770 meters long caved in the hillside of Posillipo).

A magical place so close but so far away from the buzz and noise of Napoli. Very well preserved archeological site with breathtaking views. I generally don’t like guided tours but Alessia is a really excellent guide, very knowledgeable, technically proficient but also engaging and never boring. Slightly “off the beaten track” but strongly suggested to experience something different in Napoli.
