Naples
Discover opera in Naples!
Naples, the capital of Campania and southern Italy, offers a magnificent view of the Gulf of Naples and Mount Vesuvius! Culture and opera are also a must in Naples, with the famous Teatro San Carlo a must-see.
What to do in Naples
Naples is THE city of southern Italy. You can wander through its pretty, shady streets or its noisier boulevards, which are steeped in history. Naples is a must for all culture lovers! It has been home to many artists, writers and painters, and was one of the capitals of the Baroque period with the painter Carravagio.
Visit the ancient fortress Castel dell'Ovo, then stroll through the streets and don't miss Via dei Tribunali, the Neapolitan alleyway par excellence! Take the opportunity to make a diversion to the Chiesa di San Domenico Maggiore, a basilica whose interior decor will amaze you!
Naples is of course the birthplace of pizza, which originated in the working-class districts. Neapolitan pizza is best enjoyed simply: tomatoes, anchovies and olive oil, a pure delight!
Naples and classical music
Naples is home to one of the world's first opera houses, the Teatro San Carlo, which dates back to 1737. When it was built, the theatre could seat more than 3,000 people, including 1,379 seated. This opera house is a jewel of Giovanni Antonio Medrano's architecture, illustrating the royal power of Charles III of Bourbon with its gold and blue ornamentation.
The Teatro di San Carlo became the European musical stage par excellence, attracting foreign musicians such as Haydn and Bach. Famous composers such as Gioachino Rossini and later Gaetano Donizetti were artistic directors of the Teatro di San Carlo.
Today, the Teatro di San Carlo offers top-quality operas, dance performances and concerts every season. Tickets for performances at the Teatro di San Carlo are always in demand, as the choice of performers and musicians is second to none, and the theatre is also a real jewel!
