Naples
Naples, at the foot of Mount Vesuvius, is the capital of the Campania region in Italy. Its historic old town "Spaccanapoli" is full of sights. There are hundreds of old buildings and churches, including the famous neo-Gothic cathedral of Naples with its three magnificent portals. The coastal region itself is spectacularly beautiful, the "Costa Amalfitana" with its wonderful landscape. What do you eat in the hometown of pizza? Well, just this one. At "Brandi", the inventor of the famous Margherita pizza, it tastes particularly good (Salita S. Anna di Palazzo 1-2). The Neapolitans themselves swear by "babà", an alcohol-soaked pastry.
"One day I will return to Naples,
because it's my home and I love it.
But not to sing,
but to eat pizza."
- Enrico Caruso (1873-1921)
