10 Things to do in Naples, Italy Travel Guide Video Transcript: (NAPOLI)
Tell anyone you’re travelling to Naples and you’ll likely get a few raised eyebrows with some side comments about the mafia, or grid-lock traffic, or garbage on the streets. Somewhere along the way, Naples seems to have earned a bad reputation, but we thought it all sounded a bit too harsh. We wanted to experience the city for ourselves, plus we’d also heard there was good pizza!
We ended up having a grand ol’ time, so join on us as we show you what you can get up to with a couple of days in Naples, plus somewhere along the way, we’ll also reveal where we ate our favourite pizza.
Piazza del Plebiscito seemed like a good place to start our tour. This is a large public square in Central Naples, that earned its name from the 1860 vote that brought Naples into the unified Kingdom of Italy.
The plaza is surrounded by numerous attractions, including the Royal Palace of Naples on one side, and the Basilica of San Francesco di Paola.
We then visited the Royal Palace of Naples. This was one of the four residences in Naples used by the Bourbon Kings during their rule of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies.
The admission fee was 4 Euros and this gave us access to the Royal Apartments where we got to admire porcelains, tapestries, sculptures and painted ceilings found within the palace walls.
We visited was Castel Nuovo, an imposing medieval castle that dates back to 1282. This castle was built when Charles I of Naples took the throne and moved his capital from Palermo to Naples.
Admission to the castle was 6 Euros per person.
We stopped by Caffe Gambrinus, a historic coffeehouse in the heart Naples for a bite and drink.
We visited Galleria Umberto I, which is a gallery which vaulted iron and glass ceilings, where you can shop & people watch.
This gallery dates back to the late 1880s and meant to be reminiscent of Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II in Milan.
While in Naples, we took it upon ourselves to find the best pizza in the city. This involved eating a total of 10 pizzas over two days.
In the end we decided Da Michele was our personal favourite.
Because we always enjoy visiting outdoor markets wherever we go, we stopped by the Fish Market.
Moving on to museums we visited Naples National Archaeological Museum. This museum holds the Farnese Marbles, which is an impressive collection of Roman copies of classical Greek sculptures and ruins of Pompeii and Herculaneum.
Another place we visited in Naples was the Quartieri Spagnoli, or Spanish Quarter. The streets in this quarter were laid down during the 16th century for the Spanish military barracks outside the city walls. The streets here are narrow and the buildings tall.
And that’s a wrap for our quick 2-day tour of Naples. We hope this video gave you a few ideas of things you can do in the city and all the pizza you can eat in between.
This is part of our Travel in Italy video series showcasing Italian food, Italian culture and Italian cuisine.

Sirolo one of the best beaches of Adriatic Riviera del Conero in le Marche Italy Italia Italien
Sirolo is one of the most charming sea resorts of the Region le Marche, in central Italy, on the Adriatic coast, south of Ancona. Its most famous beach le due sorelle (two sister beach) is the symbol of the Conero natural park. But Sirolo has an old historical origin which dates back to the Piceni People and the Romans and hosts a perfectly conserved medieval town centre.
Wild pebbly and sandy beaches, steep cliffs, caves, white rocks covered by mediterranean vegetation overlooking crystal clear water, make of Sirolo the ideal place to discover a still uncontaminated nature. At the same time tourists can enjoy the welcoming and pictursque atmosphere of the lively historical centre with its bars, cafes, typical small shops and ice cream parlours.
Sirolo ist eine der zauberhaftesten Ortschaften der Region Marken in Mittelitalien, an der Adria, südlich von Ancona. Der berühmteste Strand von Sirolo heißt Le Due Sorelle (die zwei Schwestern), er ist das Wahrzeichen des Naturparks Conero. Sirolo hat antike Ursprünge, die bis zu den Picenen und den Römern reichen, während im Dorfzentrum noch viele mittelalterliche Gebäude erhalten sind. Wilde Kies- und Sandstrände, Steilküste, Höhlen und weiße von mediterraner Vegetation bewachsene Klippen über kristallklarem Wasser machen Sirolo zu einem idealen Ort, an dem man noch unberührter Natur begegnet.
Gleichzeitig kann der Tourist während seines Aufenthaltes die gastfreundliche und malerische Atmosphäre des lebendigen mittelalterlichen Städtchens mit seinen Bars, Cafés, typischen kleinen Läden und den Eisdielen erleben.
Sirolo è una delle località balneari più caratteristiche della Riviera del Conero nelle Marche, Italia. Situato ai piedi del promontorio del Conero, ospita magnifiche spiagge raggiungibili tramite panoramici sentieri che scendono dal centro abitato. La spiaggia più caratteristica, le due sorelle è diventata il simbolo del parco del Conero e d è accessibile nel periodo estivo via mare con dei battelli che partono dal porticciolo turistico di Numana. Sirolo ha origini molto antiche (piceni, greci, romani) e il centro storico conserva perfettamente i tratti caratteristici del borgo medievale.

Photography Mission | Vernazza, Cinque Terre, Italy
••• SUBSCRIBE TO MY CHANNEL HERE: •••
This vlog picks up where I left off on my Castle Doria vlog. If you're looking for things to do in Cinque Terre, why not go on a photography mission? We went on a short hike to capture some shots of #Vernazza during the sunset. It was a really good time and I was able to get some really nice shots. Hiking up the hill in Vernazza at this time of the day during the Italian summer is not too bad. It's still hot in the early evening and there are plenty of bugs so make sure you take some bug repellent with you and you'll be just fine. Also, make sure you take a flashlight with you as well as the hiking path is completely dark at night. Check out my Instagram and/or vlog to see the photos.
This video is straight out of the camera, no color correction or effects added.
Thanks for watching!

Learn Italian in Tuscany at Il Sasso, Montepulciano
One of the best Italian Language school in Italy. c: Brian Gendece 2018 All Rights Reserved -- I am not affiliated nor do I work for Il Sasso. This is my personal review and opinion of this wonderful Italian language school located in Montepulciano (Tuscany), Italy. Unlike other schools, this one has many opportunities to explore outside the classroom. I have taken classes there 3 different times and I have made so many friends and have such fond memories. I give it my highest rating. also:

Ancona, via e Loggia dei Mercanti - Merchants' Lodge (manortiz) 1080
Loggia Dei Mercanti
Splendida nei suoi plastici intagli marmorei in gotico fiorito veneziano si staglia la Loggia dei Mercanti, Sumptibus erectum/comunitatis Anconae, come si legge nelle due targhe marmoree apposte nella fascia mediana del prospetto.
Eretta dal Comune anconitano per ospitare tutte le attività legate al commercio e alla navigazione in un periodo molto florido per la città, dal punto di vista economico, è situata molto vicino al porto, da sempre fulcro degli intensi scambi mercantili indispensabili per l’economia di Ancona.
La prima costruzione della Loggia dei Mercanti fu iniziata nel 1443 ad opera dell’architetto Giovanni Pace detto il Sodo.
La splendida facciata su via della Loggia è invece opera di Giorgio Orsini da Sebenico che la realizzò tra il 1454 e il 1459 in stile gotico fiorito veneziano in marmo dalmatico (pregiata pietra delle cave dell’isola di Brazza). Al piano terra vi sono tre arcate a sesto acuto a ognuna delle quali corrisponde, al piano superiore, una finestra bifora con colonne tortili al centro. Ai lati delle finestre, pilastri con nicchie che ospitano le statue della Speranza, della Fortezza, della Giustizia e della Carità, tutte virtù del buon mercante cristiano. Al centro della fronte si trova il rilievo del cavaliere armato di spada, simbolo della città.
Nel 1558 il bolognese Pellegrino Pellegrini detto il Tibaldi ristrutturò l’edificio rovinato dai gravi danni causati da un incendio del 1556 che distrusse quasi completamente tutta la parte interna, il solaio del primo piano e il tetto: vennero tamponate le bifore, affrescato l’interno con una iconografia simbolica (andata perduta nei successivi eventi bellici) e realizzata la facciata sul lato mare con la terrazza che ancora oggi si affaccia sul porto. Da qui i commercianti potevano osservare le navi che entravano in rada e seguire quelle in partenza.
Restaurata alla fine del 700 con interventi di Giuseppe Pallavicini e Gioacchino Varlè, mantenne la decorazione del Tibaldi fino al 1943, quando i bombardamenti ne distrussero larghissima parte.
Dopo le devastazioni subite a causa degli eventi bellici dell’ultimo conflitto mondiale, la Loggia venne riaperta al pubblico il 21 novembre 1952.
Attualmente è sede di rappresentanza della Camera di Commercio di Ancona.
Merchants’ Lodge
The Lodge attracts the eye with its beautiful marble sculptures in Venetian Gothic style. Two marble inscriptions in the middle of the facade state: ” Sumptibus erectum / comunitatis Anconae,” (erected by the undertaking of the community of Ancona). Erected by the township of Ancona to host all activities linked to commerce and navigation, during a prosperous period for the economy of the city, the lodge is in fact located near the harbour, an essential location for trade and for the whole economy of Ancona.
The building of the Lodge began in 1443, thanks to the architect Giovanni Pace, also called “il Sodo”.
The splendid facade in Via della Loggia is the work of Giorgio Orsini from Sibenik, who built it between 1454 and 1459 in the Venetian Gothic style, using precious Dalmatian marble from the quarries of Brac. On the ground floor there are three pointed arches, each
corresponding to a mullioned window with twisted columns on the upper floor. Beside the windows there are columns with niches containing statues representing Hope, Fortitude, Justice and Charity, all the virtues of the good Christian merchant. The relief of a sword-wielding knight, emblem of the city, is at the very centre of the facade. In 1558 Pellegrino Pellegrini from Bologna, also called Tibaldi, restored the Lodge: the building had been damaged by a fire in 1556. The ceiling of the first floor and the roof burned down, and most of the building was destroyed. During this renovation, the mullioned windows were closed, the interior was frescoed with a symbolic iconography (lost in the war) and the side overlooking the harbour was renovated with a terrace that is still visible today. From there, the merchants could watch the ships in the harbour come and go.
Restored at the end of the 18th century with contributions by Giuseppe Pallavicini and Gioacchino Varlè, it carried the decorations made by Tibaldi until 1943, when the bombings destroyed most of the building.
After the devastation suffered during World War II, the Lodge was reopened to the public on the 21 November 1952.
Today it is the public seat of the Chamber of Commerce of Ancona.
