The journey to wonderful places
Alberto Angela takes us to the discovery of beautiful places in an unusual silence for us, when there are no tourists and crowds of people moving to different areas.
This way we can better appreciate the details of our iconic places. To put it in the words of the great popularizer:
Naples has lights and shadows. Our program focuses on lights, making them see a reverberation that is sometimes overlooked. This program also serves to dismantle prejudices. Naples is for Italy a little what Italy is for abroad. There are clichés, but then you have to know, knowledge is the most important thing to demolish and dismantle prejudices. I feel good in Naples, I've been coming here to work for years
