Quite a lot going on outside a salumeria in the Spanish Quarter in Naples<\/em><\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Naples sounds like chaos, passion and southern Italian joie de vivre. Italy's third largest city is a melting pot of history, culture and a pinch of anarchy. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Directly at the Situated at the foot of Mount Vesuvius<\/a>It is a city of extremes: magnificent palazzi next to dilapidated old buildings, dolce vita next to Camorra, and the best pizza in the world in the middle of traffic chaos. But it is precisely these contrasts that make Naples so unique. Anyone who gets involved with the city will be rewarded with an unrivalled atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A city on explosive terrain <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Few cities are as spectacular and at the same time as dangerous as Naples. Built directly in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius, one of the world's most notorious volcanoes, the city lives with a constant, albeit often suppressed, threat. The last eruption was in 1944, but scientists warn: Vesuvius is only sleeping, it is not extinguished<\/a>. The Phlegraean Fields to the west of the city, a huge underground volcanic landscape, are also highly active geologically. But it is precisely this explosive environment that makes the region one of the most fertile and fascinating places in Italy. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And as if that wasn't enough, perhaps the most beautiful coastline in the world lies just outside the city gates: the Amalfi Coast with its steep cliffs, pastel-coloured villages and azure blue sea is just a short drive away. And for those who like it sophisticated, take the ferry across to Capri - the island of the rich and beautiful, which has enchanted visitors for centuries with its Blue Grotto, the Faraglioni rocks and a glamorous piazzetta.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\n\t\t\t\t\t
