Main tourist bus stops in Naples
National Archaeological Museum of Naples (MANN)
Naples' finest museum is also one of the oldest and most important in the world. The MANN is an impressive display of items from the ruins of Pompeii and Herculaneum, impressive rooms such as the Hall of the Sundial, galleries dedicated to Egyptian art and the most remarkable numismatic collections in the world.
Virgilian Park
This immense park is a marvel of relaxation and nature. Situated on the promontory of the hill of Posillipo, at a height of 150 metres above sea level, its many viewpoints offer breathtaking panoramic views of the city of Naples and its gulf, with the islands of Capri and Ischia, Vesuvius, the Bay of Bacoli and Monte di Procida.
Museum e Real Bosco di Capodimonte
Located in the ancient palace of Capodimonte, on a hill and surrounded by an immense and beautiful labyrinthine garden, it houses the Farnese collection. In Capodimonte you will see porcelain collections; the Farnese and Bourbon armouries; the Neapolitan Gallery, with 44 rooms that trace the history of the city through various works of art; and a collection of contemporary and 19th century art.
Piazza del Municipio
The impressive Piazza del Municipio is one of the largest squares in Europe and one of the most important in the city due to its proximity to Naples' main points of interest, such as the port, the Maschio Angioino and Via Toledo. It is also the site of the city's town hall, hence its name, Palazzo San Giacomo.
###Catacombs of San Gennaro These interesting catacombs were underground centres of early Christian burials, consecrated to Gennaro in the 5th century as a burial place for his remains, which were later transferred to the Cathedral of Naples. Until the 11th century, the catacombs were the resting place of the remains of the bishops of Naples, although between the 13th and 18th centuries they were heavily looted.
Always keep Piazza Municipio as a reference point, the point where the three routes intersect and you can change from one line to another.
