The city of Naples has a fantastic mix of art and natural beauty. It has a stunning bay where the sky and sea blend into one another in the same shade of blue. Mount Vesuvius rears up like a reassuring guardian and the islands of Capri, Ischia and Procida shine like precious stones cast into the clear water with its priceless artistic heritage.

Castel Nuovo, the Royal Palace dominates the neoclassic Piazza del Plebiscito and the heart of the oldest historic core of the city. This is crossed by the ancient street of Spaccanapoli, where we find the churches of Gesù Nuovo, Santa Chiara, San Domenico Maggiore and the San Severo Chapel. The National Archaeological Museum, the Cathedral, Capodimonte Museum and Castel dell’Ovo are all well worth a visit.

The City stretches along the waterfront and throughout the city, there are many squares, parks and gardens, but perhaps the most impressive is the Botanical Gardens, one of the largest botanical gardens in the whole of Italy, with an enormous collection of exotic plants from all over the world.
