Naples - Day 6 - Vesuvius

On our last day in Naples, we only put one activity on our scedule, which was the Vesuvius. To be honest, I wasn't really in the mood for that, and, above all, not at 30 degrees in the shade. But because my bf already wanted to visit the volcano on our first trip to Naples, but nobody wanted to come along, because we choose other sights to visit, this time I had to do him the favour. Fortunately there is a bus, which takes you quiet far up. Then there is a first rest area, half way up to the crater, where I almost wanted to give up and stay, and a second one at the crater. What it's definitely missing during the way up are shaded places and at some times I thought I would get a sunstroke, so I would suggest wearing a hat or bringing an umbrella with you. A lot to drink and comfortable shoes are essential. What we found very strange was, that we didn't have much time after arriving at the crater. We took some photos and then we really had to run down to catch the bus.

Naples - Day 5 - Shop & Eat

Before I get to the last day of our stay and to our last activity, the visit of Vesuvius, I have some pics I have to get rid of, which I shot during a shopping spree after we visited the Palazzo Reale. We rarely manage to do two sightseeing activities on one day, mainly because we always get up so late. (yes, we are definitely nightowls:) So after we did the sightseeing, we then often walk around and/or go shopping. Napoli is one of our favorite shopping cities, because you can not only find the big brands, but also many little shops with the newest fashion trends.

Naples - Day 5 - Palazzo Reale


Day 5 and after our failure the day before, we succeeded in visiting the Royal Palace. which is directly at the Piazza del Plebiscito. Of course the palace has it's own unique style, but for me it seemed a bit different in comparison to other baroque ones, because you can clearly see the spanish influence. But see for yourself.

Favorites - Beauty Top 5 in June


Even though I created a german beautyblog, because I found it too tiring to write all my reviews in two languages and because of that, I often delayed or even dismissed blogposts, I wanted to write about beauty related stuff over here again. I want to share more of the things I'm loving, like I did back then. Not only travel posts, but also more fashion and beauty again. So today I'll show you my top 5 products from June and I imagine myself, doing these kind of posts now every other month.

Naples Day 4 - By the sea


After our visit at the Villa Pignatelli (previous post), we had another destination, which was the Royal Palace. So we walked along the promenade and through the beautiful district Chiaia with an amazing view over the sea and on Vesuvius. And with the heat you consider taking a bath. Like I do now, jumping through my screen into the water. Once again we were too late to visit the Palazzo, so we decided to just stroll around and switch to our two other favorite activities, shopping and eating. Starting at Piazza del Plebiscito, we went to the old shopping mall, Galleria Umberto, which almost looks like the one in Milan, but was under construction at that time. There I had to try the neapolitan speciality Baba, a yeast-risen pastry, which is soaked in liquor. Then later, while walking through the historical center, we also found one of the most famous pizza places of Naples, the Pizzeria di Matteo. It is so well known, because of their most famous client, Bill Clinton, who bought a Pizza there in 1994. Buuut, the pizza, like almost everyone in Naples, was great.

Naples Day 4 - Villa Pignatelli


We started our 4th day in Naples with a visit to the Villa Pignatelli, which was right next to our hotel. The villa which was built in the early 19th century and had several owners such as the banker Carl Mayer von Rothschild and Prince Diego Aragona Pignatelli Cortes, who all changed some of the interiors, was given to the italian state in the 1950s by its last owner, Princess Rosina Pignatelli and then turned into a museum, so that now everyone can admire its beauty.
