In the middle of the Napolitan chaos, there is an oasis where you can be at peace and imagine being in a quiet village.
Naples boasts hundreds of churches and cathedrals of all sizes, and it is almost impossible to visit the city without entering a few of them. There are baroque churches, gothic, modern ones, but of the churches I visited, I liked the Santa Chiara most. The cathedral itself is a straightforward structure. It was largely destroyed in a bombardment in the Second World War, and although much of the original embellishments have been lost, it is still easy to appreciate the simple and honest interior. Here you will find no excessive use of gold or intricate decorations.
