Pizza Margherita costs 3 to 5 euros, and an espresso at a cafe costs around 1 euro, so you can easily enjoy a meal at a local restaurant or bar (cafe).
◆Souvenir Shops
In this area, there are many souvenir shops selling Naples-specific crafts and traditional items. Particularly popular are handmade ceramic products, red horn amulets called "corno," leather products, and traditional Christmas ornaments. There are also shops selling local ingredients, seasonings, and wine, and many tourists purchase these as souvenirs.
Just walking around the fashionable streets is fun!
However, because there are so many people, the security situation is poor, so be careful of pickpockets!
Make sure to keep your bag closed and hold it in front of your body.
