Naples is in some ways the 'enfant terrible' of Italian cities. With its unruly atmosphere and vivid contrasts, it's anything but a museum city. Its extroverted street-life and bright sunshine, deep shadows and dark secrets, make it the livliest city of them all. From the citrus yellow of Sorrento lemons and the turquoise waters around Capri to the ochre yellow of aristocratic palaces built of volcanix materials, and from the fuchsia pink of bougainvilleas to Vesuvius's dark silhouette, the thousand colours of the song are everywhere to be seen. Irresistible, inimitable Naples is there for you to experience rather than simply see.

    I like the idea of a place "to experience rather than simply see"! Naples does sound intriguing...

    'Il napolitano: largo di bocca, stretto di mano' (Neapolitans: big-mouthed and tight-fisted)
