Ideal if you want to experience Naples with Neapolitans; these are the lively working-class neighbourhoods.
If you're looking for the rawer but oh-so cosy side of Naples, this is the place to be. The Quartieri Spagnoli and Rione Sanità are working-class neighbourhoods. Quartieri Spagnoli was a district full of gambling joints and prostitution; Spanish soldiers once lived here. The districts were notorious for a long time, but now they are interesting neighbourhoods that give you a glimpse into Neapolitan life. In the Quartieri Spagnoli, follow the colourful signs to a panorama or mural or discover 24 centuries of history hidden among the hustle and bustle of everyday life in Rione Sanità. You'll also find good food in abundance here.
