Naples

A city of raw passion and operatic grandeur, Naples pulses with an intensity that's both chaotic and captivating. Beneath the watchful gaze of Mount Vesuvius, narrow streets burst with life as motorbikes weave past baroque churches and locals gesture animatedly over the world's best pizza. Here, underground Roman ruins lie beneath ornate palazzos, street art mingles with centuries-old frescoes, and the aroma of fresh espresso mingles with sea air from the bay.
