Naples is also known for its natural beauties, such as Posillipo, Phlegraean Fields, Nisida and Vesuvius. Neapolitan cuisine is noted for its association with pizza, which originated in the city, as well as numerous other local dishes.

The city is mostly known for its high-priced homes, white-sand beaches, and numerous golf courses. Naples is the self-titled "Golf Capital of the World", as it has the second most holes per capita out of all communities, and the most holes of any city in Florida.

You'll find prices here far cheaper than they are in Rome, let alone Florence and Venice. Southern Italy is far less wealthy than the north, with the result that Naples has a much lower cost of living, and that translates into cheap accommodation, cheaper food, and more affordable attractions for visitors.
