Hi, I’m Chihiro. This time, I’ll be sharing my 10-day trip to Italy. I spent the first three days in Venice, then traveled from east to west across southern Italy, and finally to Naples. So, let’s get started! I flew on the low-cost carrier easyJet from Paris’s Orly Airport. Venice is located in northern Italy. I arrived at Venice Marco Polo Airport. I bought a bus ticket to Piazzale Roma (10€). It took 20 minutes. After getting off the bus at Piazzale Roma, I headed to the vaporetto stop. Since I was taking more than six trips, each fare was 7.50€, I purchased a 72-hour pass for 40€. Venice is dotted with over 100 islands, large and small. Large and small canals crisscross the city, connecting them with bridges. I stayed at the Hotel Firenze near St. Mark’s Square. I stayed in a double room, a charming room decorated with a Venetian glass chandelier. The bathtub was a nice touch. The room also had a balcony. We could see the city of Venice from the balcony. So, we headed into Venice. There were gondola stops everywhere. The colorful buildings were fun to walk around. We took the water bus to our restaurant reservation. For dinner, we went to Ristorante Casa Cappellari. The appetizer was tuna tartare (5€). The main course was burrata cheese risotto (25€). After dinner, we had tiramisu (8€) and a cappuccino (3.5€). After dinner, we headed to Rialto Bridge, the largest bridge spanning the Grand Canal and a popular photo spot. The gondolas passing by offer a quintessential Venetian view. Next, we went to the popular gelato shop “SUSO.” There’s always a line, but it’s quieter at night. They have a wide variety of gelatos. We had the Olympia and cheesecake. We arrived at St. Mark’s Square at dusk. The lighting was stylish. The night view along the waterfront was also beautiful. It’s my second day in Italy. I have breakfast at the hotel buffet. I pick up a museum pass (50€) at the ticket office at San Marco Station. I walk to Libreria Acqua Alta, a bookstore founded in 2002. At the back of the store, there’s a staircase made of books. There are piles of encyclopedias that have become unusable due to flooding and water damage. I head to the vaporetto station in northern Venice. Today, I’ll be touring Murano, Burano, and Torcello in one day. I recommend getting a 24-hour vaporetto pass to all three islands. The vaporetto has both indoor and outdoor seating. The ride to Murano takes 20 minutes. Enjoy the views from the vaporetto. I arrive at Murano. Murano is a group of seven small islands connected by canals and bridges. It ‘s world-famous for its production of Murano glass (Venetian glass). In the 13th century, the Republic of Venice gathered glass workshops on Murano Island. Glass brought enormous wealth to the Republic of Venice and supported its economy. Murano glass shops line the canals. They are characterized by their colorful and intricate designs. In addition to tableware, there are various other glass products. The brick tower is a clock tower. Next, we headed to the northern island. Feeling hungry, we went to Murano Gelateria. They offer a wide variety of gelato and desserts. The mango gelato (2.9€) was rich and delicious. Next, we went to the Glass Museum. Admission is 10€, and the museum pass is valid. Glass is said to have a history of over 4,000 years. It features an Italian glass garden. The glass from Calici da Collezione is adorable. Murano Island’s colorful buildings are a joy to explore. We took a water bus to Burano, a 30-minute boat ride away. Colorful buildings came into view. We arrived on Burano, a fisherman’s island consisting of four islands. It’s said that fishermen painted their houses brightly so they could find them even in the fog . For lunch, we went to Tipico J03, which offers light meals like sandwiches and cicchetti. We tried cicchetti (10.5€), a traditional Venetian small dish. There’s a relaxing park in front of the sea. Next, we visited the Lace Museum, which displays lace from the 16th to 20th centuries. It’s amazing how intricately they’re handmade. This building was originally a lace school. Next, we went to Trexento, a gelato shop with a wide selection, from fruit to milk flavors. We tried lemon and stracciatella (6€). After our meal , we continued exploring Burano. The cats are adorable! It’s also fun to stroll the side streets. Restaurants and cafes line the canals. After touring the island, we returned to the pier. Next, we head to Torcello Island. It’s a 5-minute ride from Burano Island. Let’s depart Burano! We arrive at Torcello Island. From the pier, we walk along the canal. After about 10 minutes, we arrive at the Basilica of Santa Maria Assunta. This white marble Byzantine-style church was built in the 7th century. The entrance fee for the church and tower is 9 euros, but photography is not permitted inside the church. There is no elevator in the bell tower; you must climb it on foot. Bells are lined up on the observation deck. You can enjoy a 360-degree panorama from the observation deck. To the west is the church. Burano is colorful and beautiful even from above. There is a street stall in front of the church with a lovely painting! Now, we walk the same way back to the pier. From Torcello, we return to Venice via Burano. We’re back at the port on the northern side of Venice. Next, we head to Gelateria Gallonetto. We had to wait in line for a bit at this popular gelato shop. They serve standard-tasting gelato. The tiramisu and stracciatella (3.5€) are smooth and delicious. For dinner, we went to Regina Corner Ristorante, an Italian restaurant . For drinks, we had a Bellini (10€), a peach cocktail originating in Venice. Tomato canapés and bread were served as appetizers. For appetizers, we had Caprese (16€). Pasta (24€) included shrimp and mussels. For dessert, we had crème brûlée (10€). By the time we finished, it was already dark. We took the water bus back to the hotel. Good night. It was our third day in Italy. We had breakfast at the hotel. After breakfast, we boarded the water bus to begin our sightseeing. As we departed from S. Marco-San Zaccaria Station, we could see the Doge’s Palace. We also saw the Basilica of Santa Maria della Salute, a Baroque church built between 1631 and 1681. Admission is free. The Baroque style is characterized by its lavish decorations, including sculptures, columns, gold leaf, and ceiling paintings. It was built to thank the Virgin Mary for the end of the plague that was rampant at the time. The huge dome is beautiful. There are gondolas parked in front of the church. Next, we head to the Squero di San Trovaso, the oldest surviving squero (shipbuilding yard for small boats). Next, we headed to Ca’ Rezzonico, a museum dedicated to 18th-century Venetian culture. The ballroom boasts a gorgeous chandelier. The Portego is a connecting corridor. The crystal chandelier’s floral decorations are charming. This room is a restored 18th-century bedroom. This pharmacy has been in Venice since the 17th century. There’s a garden next door. A short walk leads to the canal intersection, where you’ll find a Banksy piece. For lunch, we went to Hostaria Osottoosopra, a restaurant facing the canal with a view. I had the ricotta and spinach ravioli (17€). The truffle sauce was rich and delicious. The bread was fluffy and soft, and delicious dipped in the truffle sauce. After lunch, we took a water bus to St. Mark’s Square. Then, we headed to St. Mark’s Basilica, a Romanesque-Byzantine church built in the 9th century. The interior is in the Greek cross style, characteristic of Byzantine architecture. The ceiling is covered with gold and glass mosaics. The main altar contains the remains of St. Mark. Behind the altar is the Pala d’Oro, the temple’s greatest treasure. The gilded altarpiece depicts biblical scenes and saints. Next, we head to the Doge’s Palace, the former residence of the Venetian governor. It symbolizes the wealth and power of the Venetian Republic. It was also the meeting place for the Great Council. The Bridge of Sighs leads to the prisons. Those convicted at the Doge’s Palace crossed it to be transferred to their cells . Its name comes from the “sigh” uttered by the prisoners as they bid farewell to the free world . The prisons were originally located on the first floor of the Doge’s Palace, but this new one was built at the end of the 16th century due to overcrowding and deterioration of the old prisons. It was fascinating to see the various rooms. Next, we headed to the Correr Museum. This museum showcases the history and lifestyle of Venice. It’s decorated with Neoclassical paintings. The walls are covered in bookshelves, a truly impressive sight. Next, we visited the Royal Palace, a series of lavish rooms. The ballroom was spectacular. Next, we went to Caffè Florian. Opened in 1720, it’s one of Italy’s oldest cafes. It features six luxurious salons. I had the Florián Sunrise (18€). It was a cake with white chocolate mousse, orange jelly, and pistachios. I had a cafe latte (12€). Next, we went to the Bell Tower. Built between 888 and 1514, it once served as a lighthouse. Take the elevator up to the Bell Tower. The observation deck offers a 360-degree view. To the east is the Doge’s Palace. The ocean was beautiful. We went to the Coop supermarket. It’s a large store with everything you need, including a wide selection of wines. I bought a Bellini (2.49€) and a candy (1.69€). For dinner, I went to Cà D’oro alla Vedova. I hadn’t tried Venice’s famous squid ink pasta yet, so I went there to try it. Of course, I ordered the squid ink pasta (18€). It was just the right amount of salty, not too strong. The tiramisu (7€) was rich and creamy—it was absolutely delicious! When I returned to the hotel, the sunset was beautiful . On day four, I got up early and headed to the airport. First, I took a water bus to Piazzale Roma. From Piazzale Roma, I took a bus to the airport (10€). I arrived at Marco Polo Airport. After checking in my luggage, I went to Bricco Cafe. All the pizzas looked delicious. The pizza pancetta bianca (7€) had a chewy crust and was delicious. After Venice, I headed to Bari in southern Italy. I flew with the low-cost carrier Ryanair. It took 1 hour and 10 minutes from Venice to Bari. Let’s leave Venice! The scenery changes as we travel from north to south. Bari is lined with cream-colored buildings. We arrive in Bari, the capital of the Puglia region in southern Italy. The bus to the city costs 5 euros, and we pay on the bus, accepting cash or card payments. It takes 30 minutes to reach Bari Centrale Station. Arriving at Bari Centrale Station , we first walk toward the old town, which is about a 15-20 minute walk from Bari Centrale Station. We start with Martinucci Laboratory, a spacious cafe offering both dine-in and takeaway. They offer a wide variety of cakes. We finally find our gelato corner. The yogurt and cheesecake gelato (3 euros) is rich and delicious! Next, we head to the Basilica of San Nicola. This limestone church, completed in 1197, enshrines the remains of Saint Nicholas, the model for Santa Claus. Saint Nicholas was the Bishop of Myra in Turkey and is known for his mercy and miracles. The crypt enshrines the relics of St. Nicholas. We continued our stroll through the old town. The sleeping dog was so cute! Next, we visited Castello di Normanno. This castle was built by Norman King Roger II in the 11th century. The exhibits were unrelated to the castle, but featured art and other displays. It felt more like a museum than a castle. Next, we went to Gelateria Gentile in front of the castle. There was a line at this popular gelato shop. I had pistachio and stracciatella (3.5€). The old town felt like a time warp. There were some cutely decorated streets. For a light meal, we went to Rosticceria Lo sfizio del borgo antico. There are few seats, but you can eat in. The octopus and cheese sandwich (8€) had a delicious creamy sauce. We moved on to the new town and went to Bialetti , a coffee manufacturer known for its home moka pots. They offer Moka Express coffee in collaboration with Dolce & Gabbana. They also have a collaboration with the Netflix drama “Bridgerton.” I bought a tumbler and three bags of coffee powder. They even included an umbrella as a bonus. Next, I went to a supermarket called Dodeca. I bought water (0.55€) and sparkling rosé (1.1€). In Bari, I stayed at the “Travel B&B.” Travel B&B is located in front of the station, a three-minute walk from it. I stayed in a double room, a comfortable 24m². The bathroom was compact and simple. They offered unlimited coffee. Good night. It was my fifth day in Italy. For breakfast, I had a croissant and fruit cream cake. I left the hotel and headed to the bus stop in front of Bari Central Station. From Bari, I headed to Alberobello. It took an hour to get there. There were many vineyards along the way. I arrived in Alberobello. The bus arrives in front of Alberobello Station. Alberobello is a town famous for its fairytale-like buildings, the “trulli.” Trulli are white-walled houses with conical roofs made of piled limestone. They were registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1996. For lunch, we went to Ristorante La Cantina. Here, you can enjoy traditional Puglia cuisine. I ordered the “Puglia in a dish” plate, which is a plate filled with Puglia dishes. The main dish was orecchiette pasta shaped like an earlobe. The cream in the tiramisu was light and not too sweet. After the meal, I had a cappuccino. Next, I went to the Cathedral of St. Cosma and St. Damiano, a Catholic church founded in the 17th century. From the observation deck in Piazza del Popolo , you can see the trulli houses. I went down the stairs to the other side. There are two trulli areas: Rione Monti and Aia Piccola. I started in Rione Monti, a commercial area lined with souvenir shops . You can see the trulli. The attic is a storage room. There is also a shop with access to the rooftop. There was a miniature Alberobello. Next, I went to the Martinucci Laboratory, where I ordered sweets and sandwiches. There was gelato in the back. I had stracciatella and panna cotta (3.5€). Next, I went to Telaio Antico, a shop filled with textiles. I bought magnets and potholders here. I arrived at a famous photo spot in Alberobello. It’s located on a hill in the Rione Monti district. I headed across the main street to the Aia Piccola district. First, I went to Trullo Sovrano, the only trulli with two floors. Inside is a house museum. It contains various rooms, including a kitchen and living room. The bedroom is next to the entrance. A loom is on the second floor. The window offers a view of the scenery in front. A hat floats above Via Brigata Regina. Next, I went to Villa Communale Belvedere Park. This popular photo spot offers a view of the Rione Monti district from the entrance. I went to La Lira Focacceria for dinner. They serve pizza by the slice. The prosciutto pizza (2.5€) had a chewy crust and fluffy cream—delicious! I stayed at Le Alcove in Alberobello, a trulli hotel. My room was a deluxe single room. The cream-colored space was relaxing. The bathroom took advantage of the trulli’s shape. The sun was gradually setting. There’s a merry-go-round in Piazza del Popolo, which lights up at night . I went for a walk around Alberobello at night. Popular photo spots are quiet at night. Each street has its own unique light decoration, making it fun to walk. The elaborately decorated streets are beautifully lit up. I went to La Bottega del Gelato for gelato. They have a wide selection of creamy gelatos. I tried the milk lemon and milk blueberry flavors. The church was also lit up. Good night. It’s day six in Italy. I went for a morning walk. Early in the morning, there are no tourists, so I can take my time taking photos. The cats were relaxing. They were so cute everywhere we walked. Finally, we went to the observation deck and then returned to the hotel. We had breakfast at the hotel. It was an Italian breakfast with bread, cheese, ham, and everything was delicious. We took a shuttle service from Alberobello to Matera. It cost 90€, and it took 1 hour and 10 minutes by car. There is no direct public transportation from Alberobello to Matera, and it would take 3 hours if we had to transfer between trains, so we chose the shuttle, even though it was expensive. We arrived in Matera. Matera is famous for its Sassi, cave dwellings carved into limestone. The townscape exudes a history that reflects the ancient inhabitants. It was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1993. It’s also known as a filming location, offering fantastic views both day and night. The beautiful valley attracts many visitors. Perched on a hill in the Sassi district is Matera Cathedral, a beautiful Romanesque church with ornate gold and pastel decorations. The ceilings and walls are decorated with frescoes depicting the life of the Virgin Mary and Christ. We then walked through the town of Matera. There are many breathtaking views from various vantage points. We headed south to the Sasso Caveoso district. For lunch, we went to Trattoria del Caveoso. The ravioli (15€) were filled with cheese and had just the right firmness. For dessert, we had ricotta cake (6€). After our meal, we continued our stroll. We arrived at the observation deck. The Gravina Valley is beautiful. There are many breathtaking views along the valley. There is a hiking trail across the river and up the mountain on the opposite bank. Next, we visited the Cave House (5€). This is a typical cave dwelling carved into the rock in the early 1700s. Weaving machines were used to weave winter clothes and wedding accessories. The kitchen is filled with kitchen utensils. The stable area was where donkeys and horses were kept. The next room was where snow was stored before the invention of refrigerators. The final room was a rock-cut church. Piazza San Pietro Caveoso is a famous location featured in the James Bond films. We climbed the stairs to the observation point. At the top of the stairs stands the Church of Santa Maria Madonna de’ Idris. From the observation deck at the back of the church, we could see the Sassi district and the valley on the other side . After enjoying the spectacular view, we headed to Piazza Vittorio Veneto. In the center of the square is the entrance to the underground cistern. From the observation deck, we could see Sasso Barisano. Craving gelato, we went to Cremes Bureau, where you can add toppings. We had yogurt and amarello. Then, we headed to our hotel. We stayed at Sextantio Le Grotta della Civita, a hotel where you can stay inside a cave. We stayed in a suite. Because it’s inside a cave, there’s no light from outside. We spotted a cat in front of the hotel! We enjoyed the spectacular view with the cat. For dinner, we went to Il rusticone, a popular pizza restaurant that was always crowded. I had a prosciutto and mushroom pizza (8.5€). The dough was chewy and the natural sweetness of the tomatoes was delicious. After finishing my meal, I went to see the night view. The Sassi district was illuminated. San Pietro Caveoso Church was also lit up. Now, I headed up to the Matera skyline. The Sassi cave dwellings and churches were illuminated with warm orange lights. The entire limestone townscape reflected the light and shone softly. It was a beautiful sight, like floating lanterns. I also met a cat. When I returned to my room, I had some wine and took a bath. Good night. It was my seventh day in Italy. The hotel breakfast, including cheese, tomatoes, and cake, was delicious. I took a taxi (20€) to the Matera bus station. It took 10 minutes to arrive at the Matera bus terminal. I first took a bus to Salerno to head to Positano. The bus ride from Matera to Salerno takes three hours. I purchased the ticket through the Omio app for 23 euros. The view from the bus was spectacular. There were many mountains and occasional small villages. It was a long three-hour journey, but I enjoyed the scenery the whole time. Arrived in Salerno. Salerno is a beautiful port town located at the gateway to the Amalfi Coast. It’s about a 10-minute walk from the bus stop to the port. The boat to Positano departs from the port. Once the boat arrives, board. We headed to Positano via Amalfi. The journey from Salerno to Positano took 1 hour and 15 minutes and cost 20 euros. It stopped in Amalfi along the way. The scenery was beautiful the whole way. Arrived in Positano. Positano is a resort town with colorful houses built on cliffs. It’s a small town with a population of about 4,000. We climbed between the buildings lined with stairs. We started our tour at a cute photo spot! There were a row of cute shops. There were many lemon products on display. Here, I bought lemon candy with lemon sauce inside. We visited Santa Maria Assunta Church in the center of Positano. This church is attached to a 10th-century monastery and is famous for its golden Mallorca dome. The interior features white walls and gold decorations. The pipe organ above the entrance is impressive. To enjoy the spectacular view, we climbed the stairs. Once we reached the top, a spectacular view unfolded. Here, too, buildings lined the slope. The ocean was beautiful. After enjoying the beautiful view, we walked along the main street, Via Pasitea. Feeling hungry, we went to Angelo Pasticceria Artigianale 1970, which had a selection of cakes and pies. We had the lemon sorbet (8€). The lemon flavor was rich and delicious. The classic Fiat car was adorable! The view from the rooftop was beautiful. We stayed at the Hotel Savoia in Positano. Established in 1936, this compact hotel has 39 rooms. We stayed in a panoramic room. The spacious 20-square-meter room offers a spectacular view from the balcony. The blue-tiled bathroom is lovely. For dinner, we went to Ristorante Don Giovanni. It’s located by the sea, so we enjoyed our meal while looking out over the ocean. For drinks, we had a sweet wine called Sol by Ezio Cerruti, Italy. The beef tartare was delicious with a hint of herb. The bread was chewy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The shrimp risotto (30€) had a rich shrimp broth. The tiramisu (14€) had a sweet, buttery cream. It was great to be able to enjoy such delicious food while looking at this view. The sunset at this popular photo spot is also beautiful . The sun gradually sets. Positano’s night view is also beautiful. The lights of the houses shining on the mountainside sparkle. We headed back to the hotel, admiring the night view. Good night. It was day 8 in Italy. We went for a morning walk. It’s quiet and deserted in the morning. Chairs and umbrellas are lined up on the beach. I return to the hotel and have breakfast. There’s a wide selection of breads, all delicious. After breakfast, I head to the port and board the boat bound for Capri. The sun is strong on the deck, so I sit inside. It’s a 30-minute boat ride from Positano to Capri. Leaving Positano! The waves are calm and steady. The view from the front is beautiful. Capri comes into view. Arriving on Capri. I disembark at the port. Capri is famous for its Blue Grotto and luxury resorts. First, I head to La Plaza. They sell gelato in the store. I had lemon gelato. They pour it fresh into a lemon container, so it’s very smooth. Then, I take a boat tour around Capri. I wanted to go to the Blue Grotto, but the waves were too high that day. Now, I depart Marina Grande and head clockwise. There are several caves, the first of which is the White Grotto. The limestone inside the cave sparkles white. The color of the sea in front of the cave is breathtaking! A crystal-clear, clear ocean stretches out before you. Villa Malaparte is an isolated mansion built on a cliff. The Fallarini Rocks are a series of three huge reefs. Marina Piccola is a small port on the south side of the island. The Green Grotto is a cave where the sunlight reflects off the water, creating an emerald-green appearance. Punta Carena Lighthouse is located on the western end of Capri. Anacapri is a town located on a hill on the island. We arrived at the Blue Grotto area. Incidentally, this is the entrance to the Blue Grotto. Unfortunately, the waves were too high and we couldn’t enter. Marina Grande came into view. It took about an hour to go around Capri. We purchased tickets for the cable car to the Capri district. We scanned the QR code on our paper ticket to enter. Since most visitors to Capri head to the Capri district, there are long lines. The cable car runs at fairly frequent intervals during peak hours. The journey takes about four minutes. The Capri district is the island’s central area, lined with restaurants and shops. Located on a hill, Capri offers great views from everywhere. Piazza Umberto I is Capri’s central square. It offers a spectacular view. Carthusia is a Capri perfume specialty store. Their popular perfumes are made with Capri’s plants. The bottles are adorable. As I walked, I found another Carthusia. The retro interior felt like a time travel. In addition to perfumes, they sell soaps, candles, and more. They also had aroma diffusers and creams. Next, I headed to the Augusto Gardens. This beautiful park is filled with colorful flowers. These gardens were developed by German businessman Friedrich Alfred Krupp. The gardens have several observation points. Via Krupp is a promenade built around the cliffs. Its winding white cobblestones are a distinctive feature. The cliffs can be seen from the observation deck on the east side. The colorful flower beds are beautiful. We left the garden and headed to Buonocore Gelateria for gelato. This popular gelato shop always has a line. I had stracciatella and strawberry gelato. The strawberries were rich and sweet, and the cone was freshly baked, so it was warm. After walking around the Capri area, we headed back to our hotel. We stayed at Malafemmena Guest House, a 3-minute walk from the cable car station. The interior has a refreshing, resort-like atmosphere. The bathroom tiles were adorable! For dinner, we went to Cinquantaduecento Capri, an Italian restaurant. The beef tartare (22€) was tender and just the right amount of salty. For the main course, we had gnocchi stuffed with pecorino cheese (24€). It’s pasta dough rolled up with cheese and spinach. For dessert, we had lemon cake (12€). It was smooth lemon cream and had a rich lemon flavor. As we finished eating, the sky began to change color. The gradations were beautiful! The ever-changing scenery was captivating . Piazza Umberto I was lit up at night. It sparkled like a theme park. The night view from the observation deck was also beautiful! I was glad I stayed in Capri, as I was able to see both the sunset and the night view. Good night. It was my ninth day in Italy. I had breakfast on the hotel balcony. Breakfast tasted even better with the view . After breakfast, I left the hotel! I went to the cable car station and purchased a ticket (2.4€). The return cable car was empty. I enjoyed the view until the very end. I checked the boarding location on the electronic sign and headed to the pier. When the boat arrived, I showed my ticket and boarded . I sat inside to avoid the sun. It was an hour’s boat ride from Capri to Naples. Now, let’s depart for Naples. When I woke up, I could see Naples. I arrived at the port of Naples. Naples is Italy’s third largest city. In front of the port is the Castel dell’Ovo, built in 1284. Naples is also the starting point for travel to the surrounding islands. The Toledo subway station features a fantastical blue interior. The design, themed around water and light, evokes the underwater experience. I went to the popular pizza restaurant, L’Antica Pizzeria Da Michele. It was so popular, I waited 20 minutes to order. They offer both takeout and dine-in options, and the wait time was shorter for takeout. I had a Margherita (6€). The crust was chewy and the tomatoes were fresh and sweet. I had planned to sightsee in Naples, but the atmosphere wasn’t great, so I decided to go to Pompeii. I bought a ticket at the ticket counter and headed to the platform. It was empty at first, but gradually became more crowded. It’s a 30-minute train ride from Naples to Pompeii. I got off at Pompei Scavi Villa Dei Misteri station. There are about three types of tickets available, and I chose the cheapest, the Pompeii Express (18€). The ruins of Pompeii are an ancient Roman city that flourished over 2,000 years ago. In 79 AD, Mount Vesuvius erupted, depositing over 6 meters of ash and pumice overnight. Many residents died in the heat cloud. The thick ash covered the entire city, preventing decay and weathering, and preserving its appearance from 2,000 years ago. Buildings, murals, mosaics, everyday items, and even the lives of residents remain, making it a “time capsule of ancient Roman life.” The Baths of the Forum were established under Roman rule around 80 AD. The bathrooms are separated by gender. Lockers are available among the statues. The ruins are so vast that it takes more than a few hours to explore them all. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended. Next, head to the House of the Faun, Pompeii’s largest aristocratic mansion, built in the 2nd century BC. From the elevated area with its cafe and restrooms, you can see the ruins from above. The amphitheater is located at the easternmost point. The arena was expected to accommodate approximately 20,000 city residents, so it was built on the outskirts of town to avoid overcrowding. The House of Venus features a famous mural of Venus riding a large shell. The Grand Theater, seating 5,000, was modeled after a Greek theater. It took about three hours to walk around the entire area. I returned to Naples by train. The train was packed, but it was packed. It took 30 minutes to reach the center of Naples. Via Toledo was packed with SSC Napoli supporters! I went to Bialetti on Via Toledo. I had been wanting a Moka Express in Bari, so I stopped by. It was the Bridgerton collaboration series I was looking for. They also have a Squid Game collaboration. I bought a tiramisu coffee, a Moka Express, and a filter. The Bridgerton collaboration Moka Express was so cute! Next, I went to Gran Caffè Gambrinus. This long-established cafe was founded in 1890. There’s a cafe in the back. It flourished as a cultural salon where artists, intellectuals, and politicians gathered. I ordered a baba (6.5€) and a cappuccino. The baba is a mushroom-shaped sponge cake soaked in liqueur. The cappuccino had just the right amount of depth and was delicious. Next to the cafe was Piazza del Plebiscito. Next, I headed to Galleria Umberto I. Its central structure is a 56-meter-tall dome, with glass-ceilinged corridors radiating out from it. Next, I went to Cuori di Sfogliatella, where I could try the famous Neapolitan sfogliatella. They also had a selection of other delicious sweets. I tried the pistachio sfogliatella. The crust was crispy and filled with a generous amount of pistachio cream. Then, I headed back to the hotel. I stayed at the Renaissance Naples Hotel Mediterraneo, conveniently located within walking distance of the Royal Palace and the port. My room was a Superior King. There was no bathtub, only a shower. I went to a supermarket nearby called Sole365. The pasta selection was amazing! They also have a wide selection of risotto mixes. They have a wide variety of olive oils. I bought pasta, tomato sauce, and olive oil. Knorr risotto is easy to make and delicious. I went back to the hotel and rested. It was my 10th day in Italy. I had breakfast at the hotel restaurant. The balcony offered a panoramic view of Naples. Today, I took a day trip from Naples to Procida. The boat departed from the Port of Naples. I headed to the boat at the designated dock. The journey from Naples to Procida took 35 minutes. Seats were unreserved. The Bay of Naples was calm, with very little rocking on the boat. I arrived at the port of Procida. Procida is the smallest inhabited island in the Bay of Naples. Cafes and restaurants lined the harbor. Since the port was on the north side and my destination was on the south side, I walked there. The colorful garlands were adorable! I arrived at my destination, Corricella Beach. Corricella Beach is the most famous spot on Procida Island. Its rows of pastel-painted houses make it seem like something out of a storybook. A cat rests in the shade. Restaurants and hotels line the coast. We climb the hill to the Basilica of Santa Maria delle Grazie Incoronata. This Baroque church was built in the 17th century. Its ceiling is beautiful. We continue up the hill. We arrive at the observation deck. From the observation deck, we can see the entire Procida area. The colorful Corricella Coast is a view often featured on magazine covers. On top of the cape is the Santa Margherita Monastery. There ‘s also a cat resting in the shade at the observation deck. 🐈 Next, we head to the Monastery of San Michele Arcangelo. The Monastery of San Michele was founded in the 11th century. Its golden ceiling is gorgeous. After a short walk, we discover the observation deck! Seagulls are singing from the observation deck. From the observation deck, we can see Palazzo d’Avalos and the sea. Next, we head to Palazzo d’Avalos. It was built in the 16th century by the ruling family of the Avalos family and was originally their palace and seat of government. In the 18th century, it served as a royal palace and hunting lodge for the Bourbon royal family . In 1815, it was converted into a military school. It served as a prison for a long time from 1830 to 1998, and then closed. The entrance fee is 5€. It took about 20 minutes to see everything. Then, I looked for a place to eat lunch. I returned to Corricella Beach. I wanted pizza, so I went to Ristorante Pizzeria Fuego. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. I had a pistachio and mortadella pizza (11€). The crust was chewy and the cheese flavor was rich and delicious. I didn’t really taste the pistachio. It was nice to be able to enjoy delicious pizza while looking out at the sea. After pizza, I left Corricella Beach. I took a different route back than the one I took on the way there. I discovered another observation deck! The lush blue sea was beautiful. The island is beautiful no matter where you walk. I returned to Marina Grande, the port where boats arrive and depart. The yellow church is the Parrocchiere Parish Church. Finally, we stopped at a souvenir shop. There were cute plates lined up. There was a wide selection of magnets. I bought a magnet with a picture of a building in Procida. We spent about five hours in Procida. We boarded our reserved boat from the port of Procida. We departed for Naples! We slept comfortably inside the boat before returning to Naples. At the beginning of the trip, we enjoyed the scenery from the outdoor seats, but towards the end of the trip, we got tired and often rested inside the boat. We arrived at the port of Naples. We resumed sightseeing in Naples! We headed to the Spanish Quarter, west of Via Toledo. The Spanish Quarter is an area characterized by narrow alleys and steep slopes. It feels a bit unsafe. The heart decorations are cute. We walked up the hill to a mural of Maradona. Maradona played for Naples from 1984 to 1991 and led the team to victory. We arrived at the funicular station. The funicular runs through a tunnel. We arrived at Vomero Hill. Vomero is home to many colorful buildings and appears to be a safe area. San Martino Hill is a great observation spot. We could see the Bay of Naples, Mount Vesuvius, and even the island of Capri. The colorful buildings were beautiful. We went to the hotel to pick up our suitcases and headed toward the airport. The subway was closed due to a soccer game, so we managed to find a taxi and set off. We arrived at our accommodation near Naples Airport. Our hotel, Terminal 1 Guest House, is a five-minute walk from Naples Airport and we stayed here because we had an early flight the next day. The room was clean and spacious. There was no bathtub, only a shower. There were no supermarkets or restaurants nearby, so we decided to go to the airport. The airport is a five-minute walk on flat ground. There are fast food restaurants and a bakery at the airport. Here, we went to Coffee Design, a shop by the famous Italian coffee brand “Lavazza.” In addition to coffee, they also serve cakes and sandwiches. I bought a Capri-style lemon cake (3.5€) and a cappuccino (3€). I returned to the hotel and went to bed early. It was my 11th day in Italy. As the hotel was close to the airport, breakfast was available from 4am. I put my keys in my seatbelt and checked out. Off to the airport! Being so close to the airport is reassuring, as I don’t have to worry about train delays or traffic jams. I left my luggage and headed inside the airport. The airport had a wide selection of souvenirs, including lemon products. Now, it’s time to depart Italy. I visited many different cities, each with its own unique character, and enjoyed each one. I’m very satisfied with my fulfilling 10 days. This concludes today’s video. Thank you for watching until the end.
