March 2023 - after visiting Caserta we based ourselves on a campground in Pompeji. Perfect to visit Naples by train for a few €, which we did the next morning. From the train station we strolled over the fish market in the Via Sopramura where our daughter was invited to pet all kinds of Crustacea and Mollusculs, that we had never even be aware of. The walked through the neighbourhood rather fast, as it looked somewhat intimidating. However, we soon reached the Via San Gregorio Armeno with its kitchy crips and the first hordes of tourists appeared.

As we got hungry, we had our first 🍕 in the Antica Pizzeria di Matteo, and later at Gino Sorbillo, a Instagram hyped place, but boy the pizzas were worth returning to Naples any time. From here on, we liked Naples more and more. The streets were decorated as Naples was playing against Frankfurt that day, the architectural highlights were increasing as we walked towards the Castel Nuovo.  We still had some wonderful icecream close to the Galleria Umberto, which tops Milanos, and slowly walked back to the train station.

We had a perfect day im Naples, but unfortunately missed two further highlights. 1. The Piazza del Plebescito 2. The Subway, especially the Station Toledo.

Hope to come back someday! This time I finally saw Naples, and I did not die.☠️
