  • The Basilica of Santa Chiara is a monumental building of worship in Naples, one of the most important and largest monastic complexes in the city. Absolutely worth a visit!

  • Pricy place - 6€ per person. Students / seniors 2.5€, but for hour walk and view of paintings and museum- I was surprised for prices. Otherwise- beautiful and place of colourfulness!!!

  • Entry is 6 euros for adults (4.5 for students under 30) and it's definitely worth the price. Walking through the tall collumns around the interior garden with the yellow and blue all around was simply amazing. Definitely a must see in Napoli. We saw it in the morning before our flight. I would have regretted not giving it a chance.
  • Fantastic peaceful spot to enjoy the history of this cloister. The painted tiles are very pretty and we were happily surprised to find a small museum with archeological excavations available to walk around included in the ticket (which I believe was about €5). There are toilets and a gift shop here too.
