Рік томуNaples, Italy is one of the most stimulating cities in the world, at the very least, it's the most buzzing place in Europe. Join me and local Neapolitan Gaetano as we adventure into a Naples few tourists know about and learn about the mafia, the local lifestyle, and the crazy/festive personality of the city and its people.

I wanted to start to watch the video buy in just some seconds of preview you already say fake things: - Mafia in Naples. There is NO MAFIA in Naples. Naples has Camorra. They are different. Mafia Killed Child, innocent people and make blood on blood. Camorra was a problem but not at that level. - Police has no control. People watch you video and can image that there is anarchy. but here there isn't. We are all good people. - We don't hate Milano. We hate people from North Italy that treat us like little people. Please you have a channel with a lot of followers, ask to someone that live in Naples the story and the city and don't go in another city with just read from google. Respect other city and don't put shit on that. Thank you Man.

Because of my dad's job, my parents moved to Italy from Algeria when I was 7 years old. We spent 2 years in Italy before leaving for another country where we settled. I am now 47 and I will always remember the 2 years we spent in Italy as the best part of my childhood. By far. The people, the cities, the food, the weather, playing football with the local kids in a park late at night. It was perfect. I support the Azzuri since 1982, even if they were to play against my country. This is how much I love Italy. Even now 40 years later, when I hear someone speak Italian, I get goosebumps. Your last videos in Italy have brought emotions and memories of my childhood. Thank you Peter for showing how beautiful Italy is.

I am an italian from the north...... It is totally true that there are so many prejudices both way round, and basically we are different nations. I have been in Naples a few years ago, and against all the expectations, I really adored it. And what I adored at the most was the people. Su funny, and welcoming, and friendly. Because we looked like foreigners to them, they showed much interest in us, which is very different from what we do here. Everybody was asking where we were from, what we wanted to do next, if we were enjoying our stay, and wanted be of help with suggestions. It was so gorgeous. In our north almost everybody keeps you at distance doing "our" business, and we feel it very weird when somebody tries to break that distance. And then....the food....the great architecture...the climate. Naples has an enourmous potential, and I think it will come out in the next few years. It is not a place where I would be able to live, cause I think you must be part of it to really handle all the situations which are not normal for us but I would adore to go there back soon, and meet those wonderful funny and nice guys that are most of the Neapolitans!

My family is in Napoli and my name is Margherita. I live in San Francisco and dream of the day I can retire in Italia. I spent so much time there and never felt unsafe. People are REAL. Neapolitans invented “pay it forward” When you get a coffee, you can pay for a “ cafe sospeso” which is a coffee for someone who needs one and doesn’t have the money. You would never go hungry in Napoli. Even when there is petty crime, it’s not wanted but the saying is, “everyone needs to eat”. I’m glad you went to Napoli. It’s one of the most beautiful places in the world. Thanks for making this video @Peter. I was just telling my friend how to eat pizza the right way. 🍕

It is NOT for the traveler who likes resorts, luxury, pretty sites, etc. It is for the traveler who actually enjoys being immersed in different cultures, seeing how other people on the other side of the planet live, and who has a bit of street smarts. It looks dirty and it is but there is a really amazing lively energy about it. Can't wait to see it again. unfortunately it was for me but not my husband so hopefully ill find a chance to go.

I am happy to say we have some pizza maker here in my local unimportant Dutch city, who is from Napoli and makes pizza exactly like these, and also gives little workshops for people to make their own. Nobody usually believes that they are really cooked only for like 90 seconds, until they do it themselves. Everything is important, from the wood used, to the shape of the oven, and the way you prepare the dough. I go there a few times a year to eat proper pizza, but I also still eat ordinary domino's pizza if I have to.

@@pancakesandtea I don't know you, it's up to you. Don't be afraid of Italian cities, the most that can happen to a tourist is usually finding a scammy restaurateur who overcharges you, or a pickpocket on the subway (in the few cities where there is one). If you knew the history of the city of Naples, you would know that it has been a place full of "scoundrels" since Renaissance times. But, as you can see, it's not famous for being an unsafe place, despite being a big city full of life. There are definitely bad places (as I told you: some particularly poor neighborhoods), and you will find a lot of chaos. But the one big piece of advice I can give you is: try not to look like a tourist, because you might be ogled by pickpockets and Latin Lovers. Also, I recommend you study the history of Naples as much as you can. You will be overwhelmed by the energy of the city, but that place has one of the most important histories in Europe (and in Mediterranean Sea). Did you know that Naples is the only city in the world to give its name to a musical genre (Neapolitan music)? *_^ PS: sharing the trip with friends can always be fun and reassuring, but you can do as you feel.

Naples is a must go for any person with an interest in Western History and arts.

except for a couple of overstatements and clichés (the one about being absolutely socially accepted to be 50 and live with your parents and the part about quartieri spagnoli which was true 30 years ago) , Gaetano was really an exceptional guide. He was really good at explaining the reasons why Naples (and in general the south) is the way it is, its history, its culture. He is aware of his history and i like that.
@affeofen Рік тому
and also, stating that italian is spoken mostly in higher status families is a bit of a simplification: yes, those families tend to speak italian more than a working class family but even a lawyer or a judge in Naples (and southern Italy in general) is always able to speak dialect as well. I can speak for myself, i come from a working class family but i am educated, got a university degree, i live abroad now and i mostly speak italian with my friends but i can switch to dialect anytime i want and i enjoy it, it is my native language, my identity. Italian is useful, beautiful, necessary to speak about complex things, of course, and i love it but neapolitan is the language of family, identity, heart and i hope the younger generation will keep on speaking it but i doubt it unfortunately. I thing it will sadly disappear in 50-60 years from now.

Great vid. I first visited Napoli in 1985, no tourists and very rough but one of my favorite Italian cities. I remember sitting at an outdoor restaurant eating pizza and two young boys "scugnizzi" ran by and stole the pizza, plates and all, from a couple sitting nearby. The prostitutes in the Spanish Quarter really did have red lights outside their apartments (the Police's "Roxanne" had been popular a few years before "Roxanne, you don't have to turn on the red light"). For some reason the entire city's traffic lights weren't working yet there seemed to be some method in the chaos and traffic still flowed. Sitting at another outdoor restaurant, saw a car accident that disabled both vehicles and the two men seemed so angry they nearly came to blows. As they cooled down and waited for friends to pick them up they sat down together for some food and wine and within 30 minutes seemed the best of friends Another day taking the ferry from Napoli to Procida the ferry launch ramp wouldn't close. A crowd of passengers formed around the two beleaguered work men trying to fix it, each member of the crowd had their own advice, commentary, criticism and insults to impart on the situation...this went on for two hours. One last memory, I crashed at a friend of a friend who was a civilian with the US Navy and lived in the wealthy Vomero neighborhood in the hills overlooking Napoli. Nearby was a park and parking lot which every night was filled with cars, all of their windows covered with newspapers...and those cars were rocking. Every morning the street sweepers raked up all the newspaper and had a bonfire. Yes, there are amazing sights to see in Napoli but my most vivid memories remain these serendipitous experiences and the people of Napoli. Returned again in 2010 and the city seemed a bit more polished, traffic and mopeds still insane, still love Napoli.

I love the fact that you both talked about the good side and bad side of Naples, I'm really proud of being Napoletana but sometimes it's really hard cause of various things happening in the country. But the guy should have brought you in the catacombs or the Napoli Greco-Romana it played an important role during the WWII. Btw everybody hates the vomeresi, they're the Milanesi of Napoli. The strange thing about pizza is that in all Italy it's the same ingredients: for 1kg of flour(a strong w type 0) you need 65% water(for the pizza verace, so the authentic recipe) 1-3 grams of yeast 20g of salt and a long proofing. But it changes everywhere you go, so we(Neapolitans) arrived to the conclusion that what makes the perfect pizza is the water we have in Naples; but I'm sure that the secret is the passion, the knowledge, the teqnique, the experience and the most important one... The love.

Yet, Ever since I was 8 years old I was struck with Monte Vesuvius and Herculaneum! My 8th grade teacher had the class do short assay's of whatever we desired and she had a very large collection of National Geographics, so while looking through them I saw one with a small city in the foreground and in the background an epic volcanic eruption! I was obcessed to find all I could about Naples, the volcano and how long people had lived under Vesuvius! I have followed ever since! Again thank you Peter and thanks to your guide!
