Naples (NA) - UNESCO World Heritage - Campania

One of the largest and most enchanting cities of art in the Mediterranean, Naples is loved and envied worldwide for its gulf, culinary traditions, theatre, music, and glorious past.

The uniqueness of the Gulf of Naples results from a mix of naturalistic, historical, and artistic beauties, adding a mild and sunny climate.


Vesuvius dominates the Gulf, the most revered but also the most feared volcano in the world after the eruption of 79 AD, as evidence of which, today, you can visit the excavations of Pompeii and the Archaeological Park of Herculaneum, which take us back to 2000 years ago.

Naples owes its fame to the charm of a historic center that tells 2500 years of history and which, for its imposing palaces, ancient churches, and underground landscapes, was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1995.


Inside the magnificent Cathedral, you can visit the Chapel of the Treasure of San Gennaro, which houses relics of the saint's blood.


Suggestive is Underground Naples with the Bourbon Gallery, the Catacombs of San Gennaro and San Gaudioso, and the Fontanelle Cemetery.


Among the most beautiful things in the city, you will notice the Toledo Station, recognized as the most beautiful metro station in Europe, characterized by mosaic surfaces representing scenes of Neapolitan life.

Not to be missed

In the San Severo chapel in Naples, one of the world's most beautiful works is the Veiled Christ, a marble sculpture by Giuseppe Sanmartino.

In the creation of the work, the Neapolitan sculptor managed to convey the suffering that Christ experienced. Through the veil, wholly made of marble, the marks on the face and body of the martyrdom can be glimpsed.


Gastronomy

In Naples, you will eat the best pizza in the world. This is where the famous pizza Margherita was born. Furthermore, in 2017, UNESCO declared the Art of the Neapolitan Pizza Maker a World Heritage Site.

The masterpieces of Neapolitan pastry are delicious: the babà, the sfogliatelle, and the pastiera.
