Romantic Naples, two hours south of Rome, is the largest city in southern Italy. It has some of the world's best opera and theater houses and is often called an open-air museum, due to its many historic statues and monuments. Join families on promenade as the sun sets on the Bay of Naples. View finds from Pompeii and Herculaneum, destroyed by Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D., at the Museo Archeologico Nazionale or revel in the art and architecture of Museo Cappella Sansevero, built in the late 1500s.

There are many ways to visit Naples. One is by crossing its space, walking on the Megellina boardwalk, wandering onto the decumani or going in and out the churches and the shops of the old city center. Another way is to cross the city across time, to learn, by images, its history and its fortunes.

75 minuscule works of art born in the Neapolitan spirit of Twentieth Century: the smallest sculptures in the world of Nativity and Dante’s Divine Comedy. The SAME collection has been discovered ten years ago and we are pleased to show to visitors from all around the world a new jewel of the Neapolitan art: these miniatures are so tiny that you will need a magnifying lens to see them! And they are so beautiful that even those who don’t love miniatures get captured. The author Antonio Maria Esposito (1917-2016) did not want to be known, and only after his death this splendid collection is getting the attention that it deserves. The smallest of these works is the sculpture of a Nativity in a seed of hemp of less then three millimeters ... You will also see dozen of characters living in a in a chestnut, in a pistachio, in a cherry pit - and then, you will travel through Hell, Purgatory and Heaven with Dante’s masterpiece of Italian Literature contained ... in a chestnut.

What an amazing experience! we received a guided tour from a lovely lady who was in charge of the museum. She was obviously very passionate about hosting the collection of Priest Antonio Esposito's works and took such time and detail to explain the works to us and the cultural context and the story of Dante's divine comedy around which a lot of the works are based. The most amazing thing about this place is not just the size of the pieces (there is a nativity scene set in a 3mm wide seed!) but the fact that all this was done by the artist not for the outside world but just for personal meditation and contemplation. And the deep thought and reflection on religion, morals and society that has gone into each piece is therefore very evident. There is so much movement and feeling in the figures despite being made out of blobs of dried paint and just a few millimetres big!

We visited this cafe numerous times during our stay in Naples - a pleasant indoor space decorated with artworks, with a small, attractive terrace outside, facing onto the bijou Piazza Bellini. Friendly staff, good coffee and nice breakfast pastries.
