Galleria Principe di Napoli
Naples' oldest shopping arcade has seen better days. Now abandoned, it was designed by Nicola Briglia and built between 1876 and 1883. Its soaring neoclassical look is almost identical to that of its younger, better-loved sibling Galleria Umberto I, located at the lower end of Via Toledo.

Porta Nolana & Mercato
At the head of Via Sopramuro stands the 15th-century Porta Nolana, one of the medieval city gates. Two cylindrical towers support an arch decorated with a bas-relief of Ferdinand I of Aragon on horseback. Under and beyond it, is the most vivacious street market in all of Naples. Street theatre at its rawest, it's an intoxicating scene of glistening seafood, buxom vegetables, plump cheeses, contraband cigarette stalls and pink inflatable dolphins.
