What to do in Naples, best places to see during your vacation in Naples, Italy


The beauties of Naples have been praised by innumerable travellers.
A lovely bay, filled by a sea of dark blue, the mingling of gaiety,  sadness and noisiness and vivacity of the people make this town ” the permanent playhouse of Italy”.
Naples is Italy in the extreme, its best and its worst.
However, the industrial quarter to the east, the busy traffic which throttles the city of certain times of the day and the light mist that clouds the horizon may at first disappoint  tourists, who dream of picturesque Naples  basking under an ever blue sky in a harmonious setting.
Visitors need to have a very flexible outlook but discovery of the city although not easy, is a rewarding experience.

HISTORICAL NOTES

According to legend, the siren Parthenope gave her name to a town which had sprung up round tomb.
In the V century B.C., farmers of Great Greece founded Neapolis. The two settlements melted in an only city.
In 290 B.C. it passed under the Roman domination, becoming so, not only a strategic site for the domination of the Mediterranean from the military and commercial point of view, but also an important cultural centre celebrated by all the greatest poets of the time.
It maintained, nevertheless, a proper administration and a strong Greek imprint in the language, in the customs and in the traditions. Of the Greek-Roman structure is still visible in the historical centre the urbanistic map, constituted by the three principal decumanis, that cross it from east to
west perpendicularly intersected by the hinges.

PLANNING YOUR TIME: THINGS TO DO IN NAPLES; ORIENTATION TO THE CITY

The history of Naples is all in its monuments: in the churches, in the buildings, in the squares, in the roads.
Naples, beloved and hated city, with an enchanting charm and thousands  of treasures almost hidden by the many coloured narrow streets, that tell us about a past of ancient origins.
The majesty of its squares shows it well:  Municipio, where the Maschio  Angioino dominates.

Naples, Italy attractions

MASCHIO ANGIOINO – CASTEL NUOVO

Address: Piazza Castello – PHONE: (+39) 081-795-7713 
€ 6, Mon-Sat 9:00-19:00, closed Sunday, last entry one hour before closing)

The huge Castel Nuovo, which houses government bureaucrats and the Civic Museum offers impressive views over the bay from the upper  terraces.
It is recommended do not pay the admission fee to the museum to go in, just see from outside, as there is not  much to see inside.
It feels like a mostly empty shell, with a couple of dusty halls of Neapolitan art.
Then the dense traffic and the lack of shady areas along the coast lessen the attraction of this itinerary.
The castle is imposing and surrounded by deep moats.
Built in 1282 by Pierre d’ Agincourt, the architect of Charles I of Anjou, it is also called the Maschio Angioino (Angevin Castle), since it was modelled on a Castle at Angers. The Aragon dynasty made important  alterations.
A remarkable triumphal arch adorns the entrance.
This masterpiece  bearing  the arms of Aragon was built from designs by Francesco Laurana in 1467. It is ornamented with sculptures:  the Triumph of Alfonso of Aragon, Alfonso among his court, four statues of the Virtues in the upper niches and a statue of St.Michael on the summit.
The whole shows the Classical spirit in the perfect adaptations of the sculptures to the architectural design, the light reliefs and the influence of ancient bas-reliefs in the central features.
At the end of the square court stands an elegant Renaissance doorway surmounted by a Virgin by Laurana (1471).

The palace was built at the beginning of the 17 Century, when the Viceroy, Fernandez Ruiz De Castro gave the work to the building to Domenico Fontana and in 1611, the son of the viceroy, Don Pedro, started the decoration, which culminates in the Mannerist  paintings that celebrate the great Spanish companies.
The facade retains more or less its original appearance. Since the late 19 C the niches on the façade contains eight statues of the most famous kings of Naples.
A huge staircase with twin ramps and crowned by a coffered dome, leads to a 17 C chapel and to the apartments. The king lived in the palace only after 1734; at the foot of the staircase is a bronze door designed by Guglielmo, a Parisian monk, in 1468. Six bas-reliefs depict the struggle of Ferdinand of Aragon against René of Anjou. The door was taken away by Charles VIII at the time of the campaigns of Italy but was subsequently returned. A canon-ball is still embedded in it.

Among the paintings note in Room V, the Flute Player by Grimou (18C), and in Room VI a Virgin and a Child by Francesco Ruviale (16C). In the queen’ s apartments note a delightful work-table (Room VIII), cased in Sevres porcelain, the masterpiece of the Parisian cabinet-maker Carlin and given by Marie Antoniette to her sister Marie Caroline; and an original round table (Room VIII), gift of Tsar Nicholas I to Ferdinand II, which is surmounted by a gilded bronze bird-cage adorned with Sevres porcelain.
