Public transportation in Naples
Whether travellers choose to rent an apartment for an extended holiday, or splurge on one of the many seaside villas that are available year-round, finding a room is fairly easy. One thing that is not easy, however, is getting around the city. Travellers should be armed with a healthy dose of adventure, when braving the streets of Naples.
Public transportation is confusing in Naples, and many travellers choose to go by foot when at all possible. There are two reasons for this. First and foremost is the simple fact that Naples is an incredibly old city, and as such, it was never laid out with modern transportation in mind. As such, the streets are incredibly narrow and there is limited parking at best. Cars will often go the wrong way down one-way streets, and people will generally double and even triple park their cars. If you find yourself needing to get from one place to another the best choice of action is to take the underground metro, as any form of transportation topside is going to get involved in traffic jams at some point or another.
There are literally dozens of architectural and cultural wonders to experience in Naples, including the Maschio Angioino , the Museo Archeologico Nazionale, and the Parco Virgiliano. While the city is fairly large and sprawls across the entirety of the coast surrounding the Gulf of Naples, a little bit of hiking is a great way to burn off extra calories from the phenomenal cuisine that everyone enjoys while staying in the city.
