History & archaeologyNapoli Sotterranea / Galleria Borbonica
centro
Forty metres beneath the city, Greco-Roman tunnels and the gallery willed by Ferdinand II: aqueducts, wartime shelters and vintage cars abandoned in the belly of Naples.
History & archaeologyPiazza del Plebiscito
centro
The great square opens between the colonnade of the basilica of San Francesco di Paola and the Palazzo Reale: a hemicycle, equestrian statues and an emptiness that in Naples is close to a miracle.
History & archaeologyTeatro San Carlo
centro
The red and gold of the oldest working opera house in Europe, where since the eighteenth century the voice has risen towards the frescoed ceiling and the royal box.
History & archaeologyGalleria Umberto I
centro
Beneath the dome of glass and iron the light falls on the marble floor; footsteps and echoes get lost in the octagon, among the shopfronts of the late nineteenth century.
