Spaccanapoli, Naples
View Original Description
Spaccanapoli is the informal designation given to the long, straight street running down the middle of Naples’s centro storico (historic center). The name has also come to stand for the neighborhood surrounding the street, an area that’s chaotic, vibrant, edgy, colorful, noisy, mysterious, and very beautiful. In other words, it’s the essence of Naples. A walk along Spaccanapoli takes you past peeling palaces, artisans’ workshops, many churches and street shrines, stores of all sorts, bars, and people young and old.
