We start our day with a striking example of the sacred and profane in Piazza Bellini where we will visit with some of our favorite Madonna shrines flanked by some of the most provocative street art featuring famed footballer Maradona. After, we will zig-zag through the alleyways of the historic center as we make our way to visit two incredible sacred sites. First up is the Cristo Velato, located in its home of the sublime and alchemical Cappella Sansevero with its exceptional High Baroque masterpieces, the Veiled Christ and its pendant, Veiled Truth.

Then we will continue on to Purgatorio all’Arco, where we will experience a space once dedicated to a uniquely Neapolitan ritual between the living and the dead that is still practiced today.

We will be in the heart of the city, so after lunch we’ll stick to the streets and soak up that vibrant Neapolitan daily life playing out right in front of our eyes as we navigate the famous Spaccanapoli street and make our way over to the city’s famous Quartieri Spagnoli (Spanish Quarter). Here it’s all about street art where we will connect the past to the present through several striking pieces and dive deep into the numerous shrines to both saints and human heroes like Maradona and Totò that line the streets.
