On the coast in south-central Italy, Naples enjoys a lovely Mediterranean climate. The city claims that pizza originated here, and it serves up some of the most authentic pizza margherita you'll ever find-so enjoy! This is also the place to sample gelato, delicious homemade ice cream. Naples' National Archeological Museum offers visitors a look back in ancient history, with an outstanding collection of antiquities from Greek and Roman times, including mosaics recovered from the ruins of Pompeii, site of a volcanic eruption in 79 A.D.
