Vergiliano Park in Piedigrotta – Naples

The Vergiliano Park in Piedigrotta is located right near the Mergellina station stop (metro line 2) and behind the Church of Santa Maria di Piedigrotta, not to be confused with the Parco Virgiliano which is located in Posillipo.

The Vergiliano park in Piedigrotta is located in Salita della Grotta 20, and is a small park full of greenery and history with free admission.

Walking in the greenery and silence of this small park you will come across the tomb of Giacomo Leopardi, from which you can enjoy a beautiful view, and where there is the entrance to the Crypta Neapolitana, an ancient gallery dating back to the Augustan age.

Near the Crypta there is also the mausoleum that contains the remains of the poet-magician Virgil, access to which is allowed by flights of small well-kept but steep stairs.

Base Napoli Mergellina is set in a historic building in Naples, 250 metres from Mergellina Metro Station and a 5-minute walk from Via Caracciolo. The air-conditioned rooms feature a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, sea and city views, and some have a seating area.

Offering classic accommodation, Areamare is located in the centre of Naples, just 1 km from the beach and a 5-minute walk from Mergellina Metro Stop. With free Wi-Fi, the air-conditioned rooms come with a balcony, a flat-screen TV with DVD player and a private bathroom with shower and hairdryer.
