Naples: The Historic Centre

🚶 2.5 km · 📍 9 stops · ⏱ ~210 min

The straight street that cuts Naples in half is two and a half thousand years old and still runs exactly where the Greeks surveyed it. From the remains of the Greek wall past a church whose façade breaks the light, a cloister like a garden in flower and a chapel holding the most mysterious sculpture in Italy, to the cathedral where several times a year the city waits to see whether the blood in a phial will turn liquid. Underfoot the whole way: a second city, quarried out of soft stone.
