An unassuming church on the outside but inside you have art by the great carravagio and other outstanding works. Upstairs has a museum charting neapolitan history and providing a show case for some modern art.

Very ornate church and you would not think that from the lobby. Guarded by the Nun’s and not allowed to enter unless your shoulders are covered up (this always surprises me in hot climates and guess God would probably forgive you!). Once inside it is stunning!
