Naples The Royals To Bourbon Tunnel – Walking Tour - Small Group

Naples has been, over the centuries, a land of conquest for the great European dynasties but the rulers who allowed it to reach its maximum glory were, without any doubt, the Bourbons. It’s not a casuality, in Plebiscite’s Square, while the statues of the other monarchs are situated on the facade of the royal palace, Ferdinando IV and his father Carlo are proud, on horseback, in the middle of the square. In little more than a century of Kingdom, the Bourbons have made Naples the second most populous city in Europe and have made it worthy to boast for the many records obtained: Naples was the first city to have running water in the houses, the first to do the separate collection, the first to introduce free vaccination against smallpox for its inhabitants, and much more that you can discover only by tracing the footprints that the Kings have left in the city.
