Glittering waters, towns spilling down a cliffside, ancient ruins, glorious cathedrals, great artworks by Renaissance masters, and gondolas gliding down mysterious canals. All these images live and breathe in Italy’s greatest cities. Naples, capital of southern Italy, with the nearby cliffside towns of the Amalfi Coast, the magical isle of Capri, and the buried cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum, sitting beneath mighty Mt. Vesuvius.
