Travellers to Naples often arrive picturing a beautiful village by the sea, perhaps expecting a church and a few lazy piazzas and pavement cafes in which to spend afternoons in the sun drinking wine and eating bruschetta, and are of course instantly disappointed by what they see when they arrive.
Napoli is Italy's third largest city, a place that around 1 million people call home, and is a place of business as much as pleasure, a city that has a harbour and industrial areas along the sea front and office blocks soaring above the pollution of the main streets. Of course, escape from that part of the city, and you will find the Naples that you expect, a provincial city with a medieval university, plenty of churches, and all the pavement cafes you could want. Not far from the city centre, there are superb beaches to sunbathe on, and the rolling countryside inland is beautiful and ideal for walking or driving through in order to find a small village to visit.
The area around the city is picture perfect, and a delight for visitors looking to escape from the bustle of the city itself, a place where you can enjoy the open air and lovely weather, and soak up the gentle pace of Italian life in wonderful surroundings, as well as being able to explore some of the most exciting and enlightening attractions that Italy has to offer, including Mount Vesuvius, and the Roman towns of Pompeii and Herculaneum, as well as the resort of Sorrento.
Cheap deals on flights and accommodation to Naples are available throughout the year, and the city and its surroundings are a superb place for either a romantic holiday or a family break.
