So,
You organised a trip to somewhere that you know nothing about.
How does that work as a good idea?

I saw the city of Naples from a magazine and I liked it, but I've read that 
some tourists, managed to return at home, have had some problems in that 
city: what is the truth?

I do not understand, Naples is a great city, may be in the double curve 
behind the toilet? 


Yes, you have to know that Naples geographic conformation is similar
to  the double curve  behind the toilet, so if the historic center of
Naples is the bowl of the toilet, the rest of the city and the
province are the double curve aka the syphon, mounted in the wall.

The travel agent advised us to Naples, because he told us that we would not 
really found Dracula in Romania, and Naples is the only city in the world 
that could have given us strong "emotions". 


Sure, I've been in Naples, it's a terrifying sublime experience, last
time me, wife and child were blocked behind an enormous pile of trash
for 3 days and nights, finally a dog saved us and called a rescue
team.

Is wonderful!
I have read of the mythical R2 bus, which transports visitors from the 
central station to the old town, the survivors say it's a beautiful 
experience.
I also found a video of the legendary bus in Naples, R2:

Are you going *only* to Naples?
There are many interesting things to see in Naples, but there are also
things about Naples that many people (including me) don't like about
it, and there are also many other interesting places nearby.
What do you want to know about Naples?

Is the town still one large dump? Mafia driven waste management has not 
been among the best in the world.

 Hello everyone
We thought this place to be an excellent B&B.

Hi, I want to know something about Agnano, I was very impressed by the 
people sitting on sofa in the middle of the street, as in this video at the 
minutes 1:35 :

Really know Naples?  I don't think so.  We were there 3 nights before moving 
on to the Amalfi Coast for 5 nights.
We really thought Naples was great.  Easy trips on the streetcars from the 
Parteno B&B.  One caveat is the streetcars are not on a dedicated track so 
you're basically competing with the autos.  Slower than what it could be if 
they did like Budapest for example but this is Italy!  Ciao, s

But you saw the city of Naples?
I have read of garbage and crime, but to me it seems a normal city.
I found this documentary about Naples, then tell me what you think:

When we were in nearby Sorrento, we were told to avoid Naples -
potentially more dangerous re mugging etc. than average.
There was little there we wanted to see anyway.
Nearby stuff - Vesuvius, Pompeii, Amalfi coast etc. - was far more why
we were there.

we were there.
So no one here has been in the ciy of Naples?

 we were there.
Then it would seem that you are either not interested in art or know
nothing about the Capodimonte museum. To me, it's one of the great
museums of the world.
And then there's the National Archaeological Museum of Naples and
several beautiful churches.

Essentially I cannot stand archaeological museums, although it's a
major interest and I've been to numerous 'great' versions of
necessity, to view transported remains..
I far prefer seeing all on the ground.
You're right, I'm not that interested in 'art' art, but do enjoy
architecture.
Compared to its surroundings I still say that Naples itself has not a
lot to attract.
Is there one 'must see' item, above and beyond the norm? If so, I
don't know of it despite some 50 years spent bypassing it!

Two points:
1. To *me* the Capodimonte and Archaeological museums are must-see
places, if you are in Naples. If those sorts of places are not your
cup of tea, then that's fine; we all have different tastes. I won't
try to talk you into going there.
2. Is Naples one of the truly great, must-see cities in Italy. No, I
agree with you that it isn't. There are many better cities to visit.
But that's a long way from saying that there's nothing there of any
interest.
