FAMILY HOLIDAYS TO NAPLES: TAPSY’S TIPS!

 

STROLLING INTO THE CITY

If it is your first time to Naples, don’t be scared. The city is as beautiful as chaotic, but it is probably its main characteristic.

You should definitely start the morning visiting the main museums, like Capodimonte Museum and Madre Museum: this second one could be a special place for children. It is devoted to modern and contemporary art and it hosts interesting workshops for kids.

Naples is a city of castles, theaters  and palaces too, so you should absolutely not miss a visit to Castel dell’Ovo, the Royal Palace and the famous San Carlo theatre, one of the oldest opera theatre in the world. Your walking day must includes Piazza del Plebiscito and the labyrinth of streets just beside the piazza. Careful with the Spanish quarter! They can give you an idea of the local folklore but it’s easy to get lost over there. If you use the underground, don’t miss a stop to Toledo station: it is considered one of the most beautiful in the world!

 

FOOD AND TREATS

During your family holidays to Naples, children can get lost and hungry between all this beauty, so – when it’s time for a break – have a sfogliatella! This delicious local treat is made by puff pastry (but it also exist a short pastry version), ricotta and candied fruit. Try a very good one at Scaturchio (city centre) or Attanasio (beside the train station).

Speaking of food, you can’t leave Naples without eating pizza. If you think you know what I am talking about, forget it. Pizza here is a serious matter and it is plenty of places to find a very good one. If you want to try with the historical ones, try Michele, Sorbillo, Starita, or the famous ‘pizza a portafoglio’ at Gennaro Salvo’s place. Street food? Yes, please. Take a stop in one of the many desk on the street and try some potatoes or pasta’s crocchette.
