'''Napoli''' is a city in the south of [[Italy]]. It has quite a lot of tourism, for sure less than Rome, but lot of people from all around the europe and usa come every year, and considering it's urbanistic structure, it can be considered as a wild cesspool of treasures and crazy locals. Local wine, like Falanghina, Aglianico, Greco di tufo and many more wines are great and with special taste, and some of them are even doc or dop. If you go to Naples, don't avoid trying the pizza, the real one!
