On the occasion of the awaited 2015 Kiss Festival, Napoli Sotterranea will also guarantee extraordinary openings
On the occasion of the expected 2015 Kiss Festival, also Underground Naples will guarantee of the openings 19.00-20.00-21.00 hours.
Underground Naples, whose name derives from the homonymous book written by the engineer Guglielmo Melisurgo, who defined it with the Greek word hypogeum, ie underground construction, is one of the favorite stops by tourists, as it represents the historic belly of the city.
Indeed, the first craft products of Underground excavations date back to prehistoric times, while the Greeks extracted the tuff blocks used to build the city from underground quarries Neapolis and to build important funerary hypogea.
But the impressive development of this large reticular space began with the Roman, who designed and built the first aqueduct, made of tunnels and cisterns, able to satisfy the water needs of a city in continuous population growth.
Unfortunately, during the atrocious Second World War the cavities were illuminated and arranged with objects and furnishings to accommodate thousands of refugees.
We strongly advise you to visit this hidden city because it has great historical and anthropological value.
We remember that also the church of San Domenico Maggiore e San Severo Chapel will conduct guided tours and extraordinary openings for the Kiss Festival.
