Naples Old Town

Considered the heart of the city, Naples Old Town, otherwise known as the ‘Centro Storico’ is a bustling combination of authenticity, Italian Culture, food, art and history. Declared a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1995, the Historical Centre is based on the same urban foundations as Greek architecture. The main roads of the historic centre of Neapolis, the New Town, are Via Dei Tribunali and Via San Biagio Dei Librai, or as called by the locals, ‘Spaccanapoli’, precisely because of the way in which it splits the city in two.

Here you can admire all of the beauty of the area, the bustling street markets, the historical and religious references at every street corner, the vibrant colours and the enticing aromas that light up your senses. 

Old Town, Naples.

Teatro San Carlo

Known as one of the oldest and largest opera houses in Europe, Teatro San Carlo was built at the  request of King Charles of Bourbon in 1737 and after only eight months the building was successfully completed. The decorations of the room are the richest and luxurious colours of red and gold, the details of the ornaments in pure neoclassical style and the various representations of all the great ancient artists. This magnificent theatre, is one of the top attractions in Naples, Italy. 

The Archeological Museum

Wanting to discover the true history and art of Naples? A visit to the ‘Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Napoli’ otherwise known as MANN, is known as one of the most important museums in the city of Naples, with an archaeological collection so large that it is considered one of the most important museums in Italy. 

The works of art and objects on display allow you to admire some of the most private collections donated and acquired over time. These collections are split into three, The Farnese collection, The Pompeiana collection and The Egyptian collection.

Experience Naples Underground

If you’re wanting to experience Naples in one of the most unique ways, you must visit Naples Underground. In the III century B.C. the Greeks began digging the underground to derive the turf necessary to build walls and temples, and creating burial spaces underground. The Romans then continued to dig and enlarge this great underground network to create the first aqueduct. Nowadays it’s possible to visit this underground site and take a walk through these tunnels.

We would not advise this experience for those who suffer with claustraphobia as the tunnels and passageways are very narrow and small, as they were originally created for just one person to walk through at a time. There are still objects, decorations and graffiti to be seen that testify to the tragic days spent in the shelters.
