Parco Virgiliano
Playground of the city's well-heeled denizens, this large park sits high above the shimmering sea on the westernmost tip of posh Posillipo hill. Kick back on a terrace and soak up the views; from Capri to the south, Nisida, Procida and Ischia to the southwest, to the Bay of Pozzuoli and Bagnoli to the west. Open 14 hours a day, this leafy getaway features swings and slides for the kids and low-key bars for the grown-ups.
The trendy Posillipo market takes place outside the main gates on Thursdays.

Parco Vergiliano
Wedged between a railway bridge and the cliffs of Posillipo hill, this off-the-radar park boasts a rather steep flight of steps leading up to the world’s longest Roman tunnel, a 700m-long affair once linking Naples to Pozzuoli. While you can’t walk through it, peering into its dark, draughty abyss is nonetheless a thrill.
