While it’s not the biggest, flashiest, or most popular city in Italy, Naples (or as the Italians call it, Napoli), is still a fantastic place to visit with plenty to offer. Here are just three of the things you should be sure to do while you’re there.
Eat Pizza
One of the main things Naples is known for is being the birthplace of pizza so while you’re there, you absolutely have to try a classic Neopolitan pie—or several. It’s traditional to eat the whole pie on your own so, you know … when in Napoli.
See Pompeii
One of the most fascinating sites of ancient ruins in the world, Pompeii is an ancient village that was demolished after the eruption of the nearby volcano Vesuvius. Now, it’s preserved as a portrait of ancient Roman culture that is fascinating to visit. From the ancient graffiti to the intact bathhouses, it offers great insight as to how people used to live in the Roman empire.
Visit the Royal Palace of Naples
A palace, museum, and historical tourist destination, the Royal Palace of Naples is centrally located and a beautiful display of architecture well worth stopping by.
