Naples squares

Naples squares reflect the delicate beauty of the summer evening, they live the cold of the rainy winters, they listen to the laughs and to the voices of the boys in the evening, but they are also full of cement, often disturbed by the mopeds and by the noise of the traffic. In Naples the squares are often maltreated and used as parking, but they are never been abandoned: they are the silent and attentive protagonists of everything happens in the city. There are big squares and little squares: the queen of these is Piazza del Plebiscito, which is the point of departure and arrival of every tourist tour and of every stroll. The rival in importance is Piazza del Gesù, which is the centre of the long Spaccanapoli, this square is also a point of meeting for students and not. Not far from Piazza del Gesù you can find Piazza San Domenico Maggiore, little and intimate, with its tables where you can have a tasty typical Neapolitan coffee. If you have a walk in via San Sebastiano, the street known as the “musicians street” and you pass through Port’Alba (the libraries street) you can arrive in Piazza Dante. Big square, a little sad, brightened up from the children who plays football. Dante, from the statue him dedicated, seems to ask himself “What am I doing here?”.
