Arrange with us an half-day walking tour of Naples. Your private English-speaking guide will show You some of the most
beautiful buildings, the most part of them built in the XIX century.
The nineteenth century architecture of Naples is influenced by two trends: the first forty years of the century
neoclassical style won out. In the second half of the century neo-Renaissance ideas were pre-eminent.
The facade of the Teatro San Carlo, built in the nineteenth century by Antonio Niccolini, is an example of
neo-Renaissance.
Instead, the Church of San Francesco di Paola, built in 1846, reflects the classical style of the time.
Worthy of note is also the Royal Palace, built in 1600, but redecorated in the nineteenth century neoclassical style.
Another characteristic of the nineteenth century is the widespread use of iron and glass: it is not an accident that
the Eiffel Tower in Paris was built in 1889. Typical examples in Naples are Umberto I's and Prince of Naples' Arcades.
The area between Piazza Municipio and Piazza Plebiscito has been since the thirteenth century the seat of political
power. There, You can see the Royal Palace of Naples, the ministries of the Bourbons and the Royal Theater.
THIS TOUR TAKES PLACE ON FOOT ALL THE TIME.
