    This is a great walk along the water. The view is excellent and there are several restaurants along the way. The sad part is the amount of litter on the streets that will end up in the water.

    Old and very old meets new! Free to walk around and check details such as old churches and pre-historic statues.

    Originally a marketplace, Piazza Dante is a large square on Via Toledo. There is a nice monument of Dante Alighieri, the great poet and father of the Italian language.

    The eastern side of the square is dominated by a large building with two curved wings. Under the clock is the huge entrance of the Convitto Nazionale Vittorio Emanuele II. It was once the convent of San Sebastiano but after the Jesuit order was abolished, it became a boarding school.

    As we were going to the Duomo, we passed through the Port'Alba, one of the original city gates of Naples and continued eastwards to the Via dei Tribunali.

    Certainly a chic area, in the commercial heart of Napoli. The streets that radiate from the square showcases historic palazzi, elegant shops and a plethora of cafes its all here splendid architectural styles .

    We have just returned from our stay at lago del peyraio, I have to say it was amazing incredible views and it was like staying in a village in southern Italy as opposed to a big city. Bring your comfy shoes and some energy as it's some going when it's hot.

    Nice enough Piazza but a bit bland and empty. There is a great fountain here called Fontana del Nettuno that is worth seeing. There are good views of the port building from here.

    This old street is definitely worth a visit, the view is breathtaking and you can look down at the City of Naples when you walk down (do not walk upwards it is a really long set of steps and steep too) from lovely leafy Vomero to the bustling city centre. My suggestion is that you don not walk all the way, just half of it if you can. It is a rather unique place and you will get lovely photos, all year round.

    Ole ty of cruise ships in the post. Not a place to hang around as it is crazy busy. Night time may be questionable.

    This is a big public square in front of an old looking church. It's not very clean like most of Naples. Lots of garbage on the group. It's not really a tourist thing to see.

    Lovely square with great surrounding architecture. Like many other parts of Naples, this is also under (re)constructions.
