Day 5 (see my Italy page for our full itinerary)

Naples is a city on the edge and with an attitude. A bit grimy, but not sleazy, Naples seems real. The streets are alive, filled with vendors and hustlers..and school children and mothers..and merchants and the ever so present and...WATCH OUT!!...dangerous scooters. I love it all!

Pros and Cons
  • In a nutshell:dirty, noisy, lively, vibrant, intoxicating...a double espresso

    Good tips on Naples. We were there just 1 day primarily to see the amazing marble statues at Museo Capella Sansevero. They're incredible. From there we went on to the Amalfi Coast. What a dreamtrip. Thx for additional info on this busy & wild city.

    I personally feel that Naple's National ARchaeological Museum is one of the best in all of Italy. Naples certainly is "alive"! Super information.

    I had intended to take in Naples on my tour of Italy, but then chose Venice instead. The decision has nagged me in a doubting way ever since.
