Capodimonte: the museum and the park in Naples
Borboni's residence – International museum
The ancient palace which houses the Capodimonte’s museum is one of the green areas most beautiful of Naples. The Museum keeps some works of the biggest masters of painting like Botticelli, Goya, Tiziano and Caravaggio. Walking through the large rooms of the palace, which are still furnished as the Borbonic family left them, you’ll probably have the sensation to go back on the time line. The 110 rooms and the three floors of the Museum composed a path which starts with the first floor that houses the Farnese’s gallery and the royal apartments, continue on the second floor with the neapolitan’s gallery and ends with the XIX century collection. Among numismatic collections, precious furnitures and pottery, the museum offers a huge photo of Naples of the past. Here we want to suggest you 10 things to see, but we’re sure you’re going to discover during your visit that there’s more and more to see.
