Lonely Planet review for Villa Floridiana
In a city decidedly short of green space, this public park is a tonic, spreading down the slopes towards Mergellina. Sitting snugly at the bottom, Villa Floridiana was built in 1817 by Ferdinand I for his wife, the Duchess of Floridia. Nowadays it contains the Museo Nazionale della Ceramica Duca di Martina and its 6000-piece collection of European, Chinese and Japanese china, ivory and enamels; and Italian majolica.
