Faro di Napoli
San Francisco di Paola Church (Naples, Italy)
Hi,
Does anyone know of Montefitorno, which is somewhere near Naples? Trying to locate where it is and how I can get to it from Central Naples.
Thanks
I don't suppose you mean Montefortino, 'cos that is in Marche?
Yep, we need an accurate spelling, because there is no such place as Montefitorno...
"Montefortino" seems like a reasonable guess, but, as noted, neither of the Montefortini is anywhere near Naples...
Bill
In Piazza del Plebiscito try to walk, with a blindfold on your eyes, from the point where I took the pic to the statue in the middle in front of you; when you'll think to have reached it open your eyes and you'll have a surprise!!
..try it!!!
The second time i went to naples this year, i packed only the barest essentials and brought 3 changes of clothing for a two week visit! it was liberating not to have to lug a heavy case around, knowing it'll have space for all sorts of goodies to bring home when my trip was (sob!) over. i had so much space that in fact, i was able to take home 3 decent bottles of wine, several bottles of tapenade and conserves, biscuits, a pair of shoes and 6 new clothing items, with no squashing required, all in one medium-sized suitcase. it helped that in summer, people wear very little even in public...
...life or death experience at times. If you dare drive.....WATCH OUT!! I can't stress that enough. Have a co-pilot to help navigate and warn of sudden potential hazards and life ending situations.
The moped in the picture actually hit my car and knocked off my left rear view mirror. The kids were riding double w/o a helmet, but were luckily not hurt. They were in the wrong, and Mariangela, my wife, told them off in Napolitan (different than Italian).
Doesn't take much time, but worth stopping to visit this square marked by the statue of Dante the poet. Here you can experience the craziness of Naples- the driving, the grafitti and the local attitudes. Lining the walls of this square are book vendors and you can find some really cool books for a cheap price. We bought some adorable Italian children's pop-up books for 1 euro each. No one spoke a word of english so be prepared!
An odd looking church in need of restoration, la Chiesa di San Giuseppe dei Ruffi was built between the 17th and 18th centuries as part of an Augustinian monastery. It was designed by the Florentine architect, Dionisio Nencioni di Bartolomeo, who died before its completion, and the work was completed by Dionisio Lazzari (both architects also worked on the nearby Chiesa dei Girolamini). The cupola, however, was built by another architect, Arcangelo Guglielmelli. Although its interior is richly decorated with the typical frescoes and polychrome marble designs, this church pales in comparison to some of the other Baroque churches of Napoli.
