Naples is one of the most continually inhabited cities in the world and is full of historic buildings, but it is also one of the most populous in Italy. Naples may be a little grimier than other European cities, but it can also be breathtakingly beautiful.

Pizza Margherita

Naples is perhaps most famous for its pizza -- pizza margherita in particular. The red sauce, sliced mozzarella and basil are said to represent the Italian flag's colors.

Castle Nuovo

One of the main architectural symbols in the city, Castel Nuovo (also called Maschio Angioino) was built in 1282 for Charles I of Anjou, the King of Naples.

Immacolatella Fountain

The Immacolatella Fountain, built in 1601, was constructed by Pietro Bernini.

Pompeii

The Roman city of Pompeii is just a short train ride from modern Naples. When nearby Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 A.D., the city and its inhabitants were buried in ash and pumice, leaving the buildings perfectly preserved for 1700 years.

La Corriecella

The fisherman's village of La Corricella in Procida, Italy, one of the small islands off the coast of Naples.

Capri

Visit the island of Capri and spend a day on a beach like this one. The island is just a short ferry ride from Naples, and is famous for the Blue Grotto, a sea cave illuminated by sunlight shining up through the water.
