🇮🇹

Naples

Naples is Italy's chaotic, passionate southern capital — dense historic alleys, a pedestrian 2.5 km Lungomare, the 134-hectare Bosco di Capodimonte, and trattorie that treat dogs as part of the family. Top spots for pets include the Lungomare Caracciolo, the Bosco di Capodimonte, and the Parco Virgiliano on Posillipo, especially around Chiaia, Posillipo, and the historic centre around Spaccanapoli.

Naples: history & character

Naples, founded around 600 BCE under the Greek name Neápolis ("new city"), has been the cultural capital of southern Italy for 2,500 years — capital of the Kingdom of Naples, major Mediterranean trading port, birthplace of pizza and espresso. Its 915,000 inhabitants share a city as chaotic as it is endearing, dominated by the silhouette of Vesuvius and set on one of the most photographed gulfs in Europe. For dog owners, Naples is both demanding — dense traffic, summer above 35 °C, muzzles mandatory on public transport — and rewarding: trattorie and pizzerie broadly welcome well-behaved dogs, the 134-hectare Bosco di Capodimonte offers a rare green lung, and the 2.5 km pedestrian Lungomare is one of the most beautiful urban dog walks in Italy.
