Notre itinéraire débute dans le centre historique, où plus de 25 siècles d'art et d'histoire se conjuguent à l'ombre du Vésuve. Des ruelles étroites parsemées d'églises et de palais somptueux sont à l'ordre du jour, tandis que nous flânons sur des places colorées et le long de l'ancienne rue grecque de Spaccanapoli, qui divise le centre-ville en deux depuis des millénaires. Au Duomo, nous admirerons les chefs-d'œuvre baroques de la chapelle du Trésor de San Gennaro, tandis qu'à proximité, sur le Pio Monte della Misericordia, nous aurons l'occasion d'admirer l'un des plus grands chefs-d'œuvre du Caravage. Via San Gregorio Armeno, nous flânerons parmi les boutiques où les artisans vendent leurs crèches, puis explorerons l'incroyable cloître en majolique du monastère de Santa Chiara. Après le déjeuner, nous nous dirigerons vers Vomero par le célèbre funiculaire de Naples, où l'impénétrable forteresse médiévale du Castel Sant'Elmo domine le paysage environnant du haut de son perchoir.

Prisoners were vanishing from the dungeons of Castel Nuovo, nothing left but a smear of blood on the stone. People adopted a stranger’s skull and whispered lottery numbers to them. Three times a year, worshippers hold their breath as a vial of dried blood either melts or doesn't. This self-guided walking tour leads you across nearly four kilometres of Spaccanapoli. Stand where a queen once cursed prisoners to a blindfolded walk, and step into a chapel holding a Christ carved, impossibly, from one block of marble.
