Sansevero and the archeological museum are among my favorites. I have also enjoyed the royal palace and the museum and palazzo at Capodimonte. The heights of the Vomero and Posillipo also provide nice changes from the historic center.

You are spot on that traveling is less challenging and adventurous since the GPS “navigatore” was made widely available on phones…

Thanks for sharing so many years of experience with us! Your insights are much appreciated!

The availability of technology for travelers has made many lazy and they dont study or read anything about where they are going …just open their phones and see some Instagram images and follow the crowds . Instant info . Looking back how Dervla Murphy and other intrepid travelers prepared indepth before they set out on their travels …What a difference! Surelythere is a middle way , not too superficial, and not too extreme .

The Sansevero chapel is astounding. I always recommend it to friends who are visiting Naples.
