Travel: Heading South - Naples review PART II

Second part of my trip leads us to the famous Naples - the capital in South of Italy.
Something you must live yourself to catch the feeling because they are so different depending on the people, expectations and experience and what pictures cannot describe is how the city makes you feel.

if you like busy life, nonstop movement, voices, sounds and unorganized things - you will feel like fish in the water. for me it was a chaos which was hard to adopt to at the first place as i was not imagining the city to be like not even close.

See for yourself some things that caught my and Wall-Egi eye :)
Neapolitan traditional mask
handmade wall clocks
 must say these extraordinary watches do catch your attention immediately. Loved the Westie one.
 the narrow tourist street in historical center was full of these traditional masks and figurines.
nativity play
 what this street is also famous for is the nativity play characters as well as items and figurines to bring back home and build your own nativity play (it is really famous in Italy, especially at South to have it for Christmas period with baby Jesus).
figurines of famous people
 this was fun to see! figurines of famous people in Italy and world mastered perfectly. some of them was a good laugh!
spaghetti meter
 this is useful if you want to know how much spaghetti you need to cook if your friends are coming over!
in the line to Napoli Sotterranea
 usie, just because my arm length is above average so for me it is natural.
Napoli Sotterranea
 Napoli Sotterranea was an adventure underground, in a dark. this experiece really gives you a feeling how was to live and hide there during the War to survive bombing. cold and humid, spooky and lonely, but still the walls keep so many stories and memories.

candles
 at one point you get a candle and are asked to follow a lady in a narrow and low passages and take a candle with you.
 underwater-carrier where people got clean drinking water.
Calzone pizza
 pizza is a must try when you are in Naples - it's cradle of it.
 my favorite one - pizza with mushrooms
 pizza with eggplant and zucchini
 coast
 me with fishing nets
Vesuvius Vulcan
 that's the famous Vesuvius vulcan.
 i have some serious problems to keep my eyes open but i do like the colors of the picture :)
 the famous sfogliatella riccia which is a MUST try.

and with this calm view from a coast I put an end to second part of my trip. the third and last still to come.
