i belong to the crowd of French people loving Italy, having been in Napoli and trying to see all the wonders this country has to offer. Been in Napoli 3 years ago and can only approve that Napoli is very much underrated, and has actually a lot to offer. Ok , it is not Rome but very much worth crossing the atlantic or eurasia.
I will always remember Napoli (beyond all what said before) for one reason. This is here where i have seen the most impressive sculpture of my life (with the Michelangelo s David in Firenze) : the veiled christ in the Cappella Sansevero

The magnificence is unique ,the level of maestria it required to sculpt it was so impressive
Do not miss it!
