Naples is a place with a raucous pulsating spirit, a working port city with a noble and glorious past. Salty sea air. The lingering warmth of late afternoon sun. Church candles, smoke, incense. The darkness of narrow, winding backstreets. Faded grandeur, a whiff of decadence. The pleasures of people-watching: Neapolitans dressed in gorgeous tailored clothes. Sartorial sharpness, old-school glamour ...

And il dolce far niente - the sweetness of doing nothing.
