For US tourists interested in visiting Italy, there is one place in particular not to be missed in 2022: Napoli. To say it is CNN Travel's weekly newsletter, the travel section of the well-known American publishing network, which suggested its readers to go to the city of Campania possibly by January 16, the last day of the “Paolo La Motta. Capodimonte meets Health ”.
The newsletter contains a list of 22 most suggestive destinations to visit over the course of this year that has just begun. The locations range from the Caribbean islands of Antigua and Barbuda to the Oceanian archipelago of Palau. There are also more "classic" destinations such as Jordan, Peru, Australia and Malaysia. Several cities, such as Valencia, Dijon and Oslo, but only one Italian locality, which is precisely Naples.
Why visit Naples in 2022, according to CNN Travel
The exhibition dedicated to Paolo La Motta is certainly a more than excellent excuse to go to the Campania capital. CNN Travel generally recommends a visit to its host facility, the Museum and Real Bosco di Capodimonte. And obviously this is not the only reason to go to Naples this year, also given the imminent closure of the exhibition.
"The city of Sofia Loren is booming - reads the article Where to Travel 2022: The Best Destinations to Go - the historic center pulsates with vitality and the districts once off-limits to tourists show a new light ". Never as in this period, in fact, Naples is at the center of international attention, and not only thanks to the success of the latest film by Paolo Sorrentino It was the hand of God, set right in the city.
In addition to recalling the characteristic "courtesy" of Italians as a bonus for tourists, CNN Travel also underlines how at this moment Naples is revealing many interesting cultural innovations, such as the "new archaeological sites that, even if hidden for now, will throw new light on the Greek and Roman Neapolis". Obviously, a reference to nearby Pompeii cannot be missing, one of the most fascinating historical and cultural destinations in the world. The article reminds us how the new ArteBus was inaugurated, which transports visitors free of charge to nearby and lesser-known villas.
Furthermore, a short distance from the Neapolitan city is located the island of Procida, a small jewel of the Mediterranean that will also be the Italian Capital of Culture for 2022, confirming that the whole area is at the center of a cultural renaissance project that will see its peak this year. 2022, in the opinion of CNN Travel, will really be the year of Naples.
How wonderful!
Beautiful Naples! 🤗
