Who has visited Naples and is looking for a wildly natural I will recommend a visit to Solfatara on the outskirts of the city.

The solfatara is not the only natural attraction of the Campi Flegrei just move a bit to be amazed by the scenery and the magic that gives the underwater park – Parco Sommerso della Gaiola.
