Sightseeing

Message from Giuseppe Re

Port'Alba in Naples is a historic city gate that leads into a bustling pedestrian alley filled with shops selling music instruments, books, and restaurants. Originally opened in 1625 by the Spanish viceroy of Naples, it was known as Porta Sciuscelle due to a legume that grew outside the gates. Today, it stands as a charming entrance to Piazza Bellini, offering a glimpse into the vibrant culture of Naples.
