Welcome to
Naples
Italy
Naples is Italy at its most raw, beautiful, chaotic, and alive — a city of extraordinary historical depth, intense flavours, and volcanic drama that has been home to some of the world's most important civilisations. The birthplace of pizza, where the Margherita was invented and the wood-fired Neapolitan style remains the global standard, Naples also gave the world limoncello, the mandolin, and the most important opera tradition outside Vienna. The National Archaeological Museum holds the greatest collection of Greco-Roman artefacts in the world, including treasures excavated from Pompeii and Herculaneum — the cities preserved in volcanic ash by Vesuvius in 79 AD, just an hour's drive away.
