Christmas in Naples

Christmas is coming. And if you plan to bring some Italian festive cheer into your home, now is the time to come to Naples, an amazing town particularly lively in December, with great light displays, but also with an handcrafted and very traditionally quarter called San Gregorio Armeno. It is not only a simple Christmas market but a whole part of the city which comes alive at Christmas time: the narrow alleys of San Gregorio Armeno and San Biagio dei Librai are crammed full of stalls selling nativity scene statuettes.
