Discover the Neapolitan's Relationship with Death at Fontanelle Cemetery

Start your guided walking tour by exploring one of Naples' most fascinating and terrifying locations: the Fontanelle Cemetery carved in a quarry. It is the city's "human archive." As you explore its tunnels with your guide, you will learn about ancient burial rituals and the Neapolitan people's close relationship with death. Learn about the cult of the "Pezzentelle" (the souls of purgatory). You will see the remains of people who died due to social uprisings, famines, earthquakes, Vesuvius eruptions, and epidemics in Mater Dei Hill's underground tunnels.

Explore the Colorful and Folkloristic District of Rione Sanità

Next, enjoy a pleasant walk in the narrow streets of the Rione Sanità district, an old and affluent neighborhood of Naples. Along the road leading to Borgo dei Vergini and the local market, you see 2 ancient noble residences, Palazzo Sanfelice and Palazzo Dello Spagnuolo. Enjoy the taste of the famous dessert "Fiocco di neve" (snowflake) in a pastry shop in Naples before you end your tour at Porta San Gennaro.
