Sacred and Mysterious Naples: the third edition returns with the Christmas review.

The review “See Sacred and Mysterious Naples and then come back”, promoted and supported by the Department of Tourism and Productive Activities of the Municipality of Naples, with its third edition entitled “Journey into secret Naples towards Christmas”, proposes, from November 3rd to December 30th, three suggestions for a great event divided into 12 shows, 11 concerts, 7 meetings and 36 guided itineraries through the streets of the city:

– “The Mysteries of Naples” with the extraordinary participation of Maurizio de Giovanni;
– “Naples sacred music festival”, conceived by Luigi Grima in collaboration with the Archdiocese of Naples;
– “Towards a Christmas of emotions”.

The third edition of “See Sacred and Mysterious Naples and then return” is curated by the Il Canto di Virgilio Foundation.

During periods of greatest affluence, the Department of Tourism has arranged the “Tourist Tutor” service who, on foot and on bikes, will help tourists and citizens to orient themselves among walks and event calendars.

The mobile Infopoints located at Molo Beverello, via Morghen, Piazza del Gesù and Piazza del Plebiscito (corner of via Cesario Console) will also be active every day from 10.00 to 19.00.

"This year too we wanted to offer this exhibition to our fellow citizens and to the many tourists we have in the city", he has declared Tourism Councillor Teresa Armato in the press conference to present the review, which was held this morning in the Sala Giunta of Palazzo San Giacomo. Then, he added: “In this edition we focus on the mysteries, secrets and also on the hidden and little-told aspects of our city. We are very proud of the availability that Maurizio De Giovanni has given: he will be the one to tell these secrets, something he is a master at. Another novelty is a small preview of Christmas. We have inserted into the Vedi Napoli Sacra e Misteriosa schedule some appointments and tours that are scheduled during the Christmas holidays. Tourism has become a very significant phenomenon for our city: during the All Saints weekend we expect peaks of 135 thousand-140 thousand visitors. These processes must be governed and for this reason we are committed to strengthening mobility and cleaning services and, of course, those intended specifically for those who come to visit our city".

"Naples has myriads of identities and that is why it is the object of such great interest today –he highlighted the writer Maurizio De Giovanni–. Of all the identities, the most fascinating, the most intriguing and in some ways even moving of this city is its ability to break down the boundary between life and death. Naples has never seen an end in death, but only a change of identity. Clear proof of this are the visitable hypogea of ​​the churches, the cult of the souls in purgatory and places like the Fontanelle cemetery. This, in my opinion, is the most beautiful and interesting part to tell. We will try to do so with many events and with the help of those who study the mysteries of Naples on a daily basis".

To present the third edition of the exhibition “See Sacred and Mysterious Naples and then return” at Palazzo San Giacomo in the Sala Giunta, the Councilor for Tourism and Productive Activities Teresa Armato, the writer Maurizio de Giovanni, the writer Martin Rua and the historian Rossana Di Poce who created the eight guided itineraries, Carlo Maria Faiello president of the Il Canto di Virgilio Foundation.
