Piazza del Plebiscito
AttractionNaplesAbout 20 minutes
Naples' great civic space, a colonnaded curve facing the royal palace, and one of the few places in the old city with room to breathe. No traffic, concerts in summer, and the point where the tight streets of the centre finally open onto the bay. Ten minutes, usually on the way to something else.
