Ciao, guys! What does this part of Naples have that is so exciting for me? It's spirit of community! If you are looking for a lively vibrant part of the city, then the Rione Sanità is definitely worth a visit while you are in Naples. It is a 'working class' part of Naples, and depending on the time of day, can be quite crowded with locals going about their daily routine. Routines that include shopping at many of the street markets where you can buy just about everything, stopping for a coffee, or just chatting in small groups at many of the several small piazzas located throughout the district. A little history-in the 1500s, the area was a valley known for healthy air thanks to its location nestled between the hills and its close proximity to the catacombs where miracles were performed. The noble community began to settle down here and it was even the route for the royal family who would travel from the Reggia di Capodimonte to the center of Naples. Travelling the route was often tricky and problematic, so a bridge was built. You can imagine what eventually happened over time- the Rione Sanità no longer had the traffic that it had before and basically was cut off from the rest of the city. What is the area like now? After years of having a terrible reputation, the citizens-particularly the younger generation have been working hard to bring that 'traffic' back. 📌This guide is designed for those of us who want to absorb the vibrancy of this slice of Napoli. 📌Those of us who want to visit the churches which are amazing museums full of spectacular artwork and architecture. 📌Those of us who want to visit catacombs and learn about Naples's rich history, traditions, and superstitions. 📌Those of us who want to walk the streets and observe some fantastic street art and murals. 📌Those of us who want to take advantage of some great examples of street food or sit down at some of the city's top pizzerias for lunch or dinner. So- get your camera, a good pair of comfortable shoes and let's go!

Naples has so much to offer, especially if you love art and architecture...and food! 🕍🍝 When I arrived in Italy 30 years ago, some of my favorite things to do was grab my camera, stroll through Naples taking pictures, then grabbing something to eat. 📷🍕 This guide is designed for those of us who want to absorb in the beauty of Gothic and Baroque architecture and pair it with a fun place for a snack, breakfast, lunch or dinner. A Gothic Architecture Foodie Tour!! The Gothic period in Naples lasted from the 13th to the 15th century, and was followed by the Renaissance period.

Let's take a look!

In English and Italian When I decided to become a sommelier back in 2009, I felt that the best way to learn about wine and winemaking was to visit as many vineyards as I could. The first area that I focused on was a territory in Campania known as Irpinia. It is located in the northeast portion of the Avellino province. I remember spending my Saturdays visiting wineries, wine tasting, and walking the vineyards. I learned so much! Not just about wine, but the culture that surrounds it. I fell in love and I think if you get a chance to visit some of the wineries listed here, you will fall in love as well. In this corner of Campania there is practically everything when it comes to territory; hills, mountains, lakes, rivers, clayey soil, volcanic soil. I could go on. Red grape varieties include aglianico and piedirosso. White grape varieties include greco, fiano, coda di volpe, and greco musc’. Irpinia is home to 3 DOP wines – Taurasi (made with aglianico), Fiano di Avellino and Greco di Tufo. *In Italy, when you see a wine label the says DOP (Denominazione di Origine Protetta – Protected Designation of Origin)- it is a guarantee that the wine was produced in a certain area under certain strict conditions. (It is NOT an indication of the quality of the wine) That being said, wineries have their vineyards spread throughout the area-often far from the winery itself. My guide is perfect for wine enthusiasts – those who are looking for an adventure in a glass. My guide includes - 🛣️maps - 💻links to the wineries - ⌚days/hours of operations -🤙 my recommendations and suggestions for itineraries - 🎤audio links This is a living breathing guide; meaning that it will be updated often. Need suggestions for a 1, 2, or 3 day itinerary. Feel free to contact me. Quando ho deciso di diventare sommelier nel 2009, ho sentito che il modo migliore per conoscere il vino e la vinificazione era visitare quanti più vigneti possibile. La prima area su cui mi sono concentrata è stato un territorio della Campania noto come Irpinia. Si trova nella parte nord-est della provincia di Avellino. Ricordo di aver trascorso i miei sabati visitando cantine, degustando vini e camminando tra i vigneti. Ho imparato così tanto! Non solo di vino, ma della cultura che lo circonda. Mi sono innamorataa e penso che se hai la possibilità di visitare alcune delle cantine elencate qui, ti innamorerai anche tu. In questo angolo di Campania c'è praticamente di tutto quando si parla di territorio; colline, montagne, laghi, fiumi, terreno argilloso, terreno vulcanico. Potrei continuare. I vitigni a bacca rossa includono aglianico e piedirosso. I vitigni a bacca bianca includono greco, fiano, coda di volpe e greco musc'. L'Irpinia ospita 3 vini DOP: Taurasi (prodotto con aglianico), Fiano di Avellino e Greco di Tufo. * In Italia, quando vedi un'etichetta di vino con la scritta DOP (Denominazione di Origine Protetta) - è una garanzia che il vino è stato prodotto in una certa zona a determinate condizioni rigorose. (NON è un'indicazione della qualità del vino) Detto questo, le cantine hanno i loro vigneti sparsi in tutta l'area, spesso lontano dalla cantina stessa. La mia guida è perfetta per gli appassionati di vino - coloro che sono alla ricerca di un'avventura in un bicchiere. La mia guida include - 🛣️mappe - 💻link alle cantine - ⌚giorni/ore di funzionamento - 🤙 i miei consigli e suggerimenti per itinerari - 🎤audio guide Questa è una guida vivente alla respirazione; il che significa che verrà aggiornato spesso.

There is a saying ‘See Naples, the die’. The German poet Goethe said this phrase when he visited the city and fell in love with its sun, its art, its people, and its vibe. I totally agree with Johan Wolfgang van Goethe. Naples is a city that I fall in love with over and repeatedly. And not just for its food. For its ART. 🖼️🎨 Yes, ART!
