    Not a very remarkable looking building from the outside conceals something quite amazing within. The wealth of the owner who built it must have been quite immense and the resulting building is breathtaking. It is crammed with paintings and statues and one could compare it to Saint Peters in Rome for the quality of the work. Not to be missed

    We chose the Memory Lane your and enjoyed it very much. I don’t think one should skip it when in Naples. Our guide, Martina, was friendly and did a great job in explaining to us about the history of the tunnels that even my youngest daughter aged 4 was captivated by it! Not only that I learnt from the tour, but I like it that it left an impression on my children. We still talk about Galleria Bourbonica until today 😊

    Went in November. Nice and cool. Enormous. Great collection from Pompeii, Herculaneum etc. mosaics, frescoes, statues, bronzes, gladiator helmets, cooking pots, glassware etc etc. plus acres of other treasures we don’t even start to look at. Is a must do if you have been to Pompeii.

    No coincidence that we booked our hotel near the Toledo Metro Station. I had heard about the art and wanted to see it and enjoyed a few times every day as we used the metro. The purple and white mosaic tile ceiling and walls along with lighting bring magic to the escalator ride to the surface! It is lovely to look at while it can bring a calming effect if your day or your travels have been hectic.

    Fascinating and free!! Awesome and interesting experience! It IS hard to find! See photos for directions! Enter into the university, up the stairs to the right, down a long hall (students studying!) and enter!

    Within the city centre, one can visit this amazing place: a wonderful ceiling in the vestry, by Giorgio Vasari. So far not widely known and therefore very peaceful and quiet.

    Stunning, absolutely stunning. Naples is not a great city and given what you see outside you do not expect the extraordinary splendour that awaits you on the inside. It was easily as grand as Buckingham Palace and the staircase reminded me of the magnificent Hermitage in St Petersburg. Sadly there are clear signs that the city cannot afford to maintain it so I would say go sooner rather than later. It would be a tragedy if such a wonderful place were allowed to fall into decay but I did wonder how long it will hold out.

    Built in 1325, the monastery is next to Castel Sant' Elmo. The church has beautiful marble floors and the museum showcases 18 th century coaches and nativities, some of which date back to 1478.

    I found this place by an accident and I highly recommend it. We had a tour on English and we didn't have to book anything in advance, if you are a student you get a reduced price. The lady who gave us a tour was so friendly and nice and she knew so much about Naples and its history which was amazing. The tour didn't last long, there weren't a lot of people, you have enough time to ask questions and take photos. Definitely a must when in Naples.

    Bring a lot of time: this museum is huge! And a phone to help you reading the labels.

    On the second floor there is currently an exhibition linked to Caravaggio. They brought a lot of paintings out of their storage for it.
    On the first floor there is their permanent collection which also includes porcelain, statues, furniture and even whole rooms.
    The third floor was closed. Why? No idea.

    The museum is currently being renovated. I hope they will improve the lighting (a lot of glare on many paintings), the labels (way to small, only in Italian) and the toilets!

    Compulsory stop for those visiting Naples: the museum exhibits a priceless treasure. A journey into the history of Neapolitan art. A must visit.

    We visited to see Caravaggio's 'the Flagellation of Christ' as it was the last day of it being exhibited here. Very memorable experience seeing it displayed in such a significant space.
    Impressed by the extravagance of the decorations throughout the complex, definitely worth a visit.

    This was a fascinating and beautiful museum in a tranquil place, next to the station of Pietrarsa and very easy to reach. I highly recommend it!
