Naples
The chaotic,
Crazy, beautiful city of Naples Italy All about my head,
I could hear children laughing, and the sounds of people having fun. In that moment, I decided that God made Italians to remind the rest of the world just how wonderful it is to be alive. Now, I would add, God made Neapolitans for the Italians. Huck Scarry |

Having had the good fortune to visit this great city of Naples many times over, it never fails to thrill me.
Full of life, passion, nightlife and sports
Whether it’s shopping in via Chiaia, at a market or simply people watching with a cup of coffee at a bar. One of the funniest things I found fascinating is the traffic on the roads, most cars have dents, going in and out of the most smallest spots, dodging the carabiniere as he looks the other way.….
From the Spanish quarters to the Amalfi coast or a stroll along the sea front, where there are some of the best Hotels in Naples Italy.
So if your looking for something different to see, this is the place.
Happy from Napoli

Naples is considered to be the home of Italian pizza and is also famous for being the site of Mount Vesuvius. It was originally founded by the Greeks as Neapolis, or the 'New City' and is located in the Campania region. Naples is a culturally unique part of Italy and the locals speak a mixture of Italian and their own language - Napulitano.
The largest city in Southern Italy, Naples is also one of the country's cultural centres and has been designated as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Nowhere is this rich tapestry of history more evident than in the Museo Nazionale di Capodimonte which is full of Baroque and Renaissance masterworks by prominent Italian artists. A 'must see' if you are visiting Naples .
The city is also full of gorgeous castles. Among these are the huge medieval Castelnuovo Maschio Angionin which is home to a museum of fine art and the Castel dell'Ovo at Porto Santa Lucia which is home to the Museum of Prehistory. Wherever you travel in Naples you will find spectacular churches, wonderful collections of art and historically fascinating buildings.
You must try the basic margherita pizza; you won't find one this good anywhere else in the world. Look for the "Vera Pizza Napoletana" sticker, a sign of excellence conferred on the best pizzerias.
