Naples is a perfect location for a complete, all-around vacation. Not only because of the artistic, cultural and scenic beauty of the city, but also because of the possibility of different experiences.
Among these, a trip to Vesuvius National Park cannot be missed.
The large and imposing mountain that dominates the Bay of Naples is the only active volcano in continental Europe, along with the Campi Flegrei. It is also potentially one of the most threatening in the world: although Vesuvius has not erupted in more than 50 years, it is only in a quiescent phase and could resume its activity at any time. Its nature, history intertwined with legend, and majesty make Vesuvius one of the most mysterious and fascinating symbols of Naples and Campania.
