What springs to mind at the mention of Napoli? Ice-cream? Charmingly dilapidated tenement buildings with washing dangling from balconies? There is lot more to this southern Italian city than a few cliches, but this book will make sure all your expectations are fulfilled and more besides. Focussing on the limited amount of time available, the guide highlights suggestions for entertaining ways of getting to know the city in just a few days - as well as the surrounding areas of Pompeii, Capri, Sorrento etc.
Divided into 3 major parts, the first explores the city's life and character through its culture and lifestyle, and the second contains an area by area guide to the most interesting parts of the city and the third is a comprehensive and detailed shopping guide organised according to category of interest. Full addresses and opening times, plus descriptions accompany each recommended, hotel, restaurant, place of interest and shopping venue. This guide is extremely easy to use with information accessible at a glance. There is also practical information on getting there, local transport, managing the currency and a glossary of useful words and phrases. Finally, there are recommended addresses for the night owls wishing to party until the wee small hours and an additional 16 pages of extra hotel and restaurant addresses for those who wish to stay slightly longer.
