The city of Naples rises in the homonymous gulf, dominated by the Mount Vesuvius and delimited to east by the Sorrento Peninsula and to west by the gulf of Pozzuoli with Capo Miseno. This excellent position creates an evocative scenery, considered one of the most charming in the world. The panorama that you can enjoy from the hill of Posillipo is the typical postcard of Naples: the gulf, the limpid sea and the volcano on the background.
Visiting Naples means to dip in a scene of extraordinary beauty, as the city encloses 2800 years of history: its churches, among which the beautiful Cathedral, the famous castles, like Castel dell'Ovo and Maschio Angioino, the monuments, the museums… everything is a sign of the different ages and cultures that lived in this city.
But the current reality of Naples is also of great complexity; the city was one of the main cultural centers until the annexation to the Reign of Italy, that threw the city in a social and economic decline; but today Naples is among the greatest Italian and Mediterranean cities, and still has its important vocation as a cultural, artistic and scientific center.
The artistic and architectonic wealth of Naples is immense, the traditions are rooted in the people and in the places: as an example, the Via San Gregorio Armeno, a street of the city center, famous between the tourists for the artisan shops, where mangers are built. Visit Naples is a discovery of a strong cultural identity, of a city with a long gastronomic tradition (the most famous Italian food, pizza, was created here) and of the warm welcome that the city gives to its visitors.
