Certainly very colourful and eventful! I have an aunt who lives in Naples and although enjoy going there, I’m always on edge walking through some of the sides streets in Naples. Nevertheless this is a fascinating city rich in culture and heritage. The Italians have a famous saying about Naples..”Vedi Napoli e poi muori.” (See Naples and then die) The belief behind this proverb was that having seen Naples which is so beautiful there would be nothing else to live for!

hi sartenada, yes i agree with you. It is pretty chaotic..the traffic and all. Ambulance and fire brigade sirens were blaring but they still couldn’t seem to get through the traffic. I did get a bit of a culture shock when i arrived the night before and did not feel completely safe roaming the streets of naples. But i enjoyed witnessing the local lifestyle especially in the pignasecca market, and the marina and bay area is very pretty.
It’s great that you liked the photos. Thank you!

To me Naples was too noisy. Aslo about what I did not like was those thousends of modeds when they were driving on sidewalks between pedestrians. They drove too close and never one could not be sure if somebody took one’s backpack and drove away. I am sorry, but this was how I experencied Naples in 2008.

About Your photos. They are awesome. Most of all I like those photos “locals relaxing on the benches of Piazza Dante”. They are showing that some of us can be without any rush, but just to enjoy life and that is real know-how of living.
