Il Taccuino

Ines's notebook on Naples. Stories, places and very good food, jotted down between walks.

Hidden gems of Naples

A secret staircase, a cave full of skulls, a tunnel full of old cars and a poet's tomb. The Naples most visitors walk straight past.

Underground

The art stations of the Naples metro

Mosaics, light and contemporary art, a few metres beneath the street. A gallery you can visit for the price of a ticket.

A day of eating in Naples, hour by hour

From the first coffee at the bar to the last babà: how Naples eats, and when.
