What you'll see & do
- ✓Piazza del Gesù Nuovo is one of the most important, famous and symbolic squares of the historical center of Naples. The square, which owes its name to the church of the same name, is located on the lower decumanus and its central position with respect to the historic city center places it a few steps away from other important historical places, such as via Toledo and piazza Dante, piazza Monteoliveto and piazza San Domenico Maggiore.
- ✓the monastery of Santa Chiara, is a monumental cult building in Naples, one of the most important and largest monastic complexes in the city [1]. The basilica has its entrance on Via Benedetto Croce, rising on the north-eastern side of Piazza del Gesù Nuovo, opposite the church of the same name and adjacent to that of the Poor Clares, once the latter being part of the monastic complex of Santa Chiara. It is the largest Gothic-Angevin basilica in the city, characterized by a monastery that includes four monumental cloisters, archaeological excavations in the surrounding area and several other rooms where the homonymous Museum of the Opera is housed, which in turn includes in the visit also the nuns' choir, with remains of Giotto's frescoes, a large refectory, the sacristy and other basilical rooms.
- ✓Via San Gregorio Armeno is a street in the historic center of Naples, famous for its tourist nativity scene workshops.
- ✓The lower decumanus, which takes in the central area the official names of Via Benedetto Croce and Via Forcella, but is commonly called Spaccanapoli, is a road artery of the ancient center of Naples and is one of the most important streets of the city. It is together with the decumanus major and the upper decumanus (decumani of Naples), one of the three main roads of the urban plan designed in the Greek era and which crossed the entire Neapolis in their entire length. Given the origin, it would therefore be more appropriate to speak of plateia and not of "decumanus", a Roman denomination which by convention has replaced the original.
