What you'll see
A Gothic cathedral with a richly decorated chapel holding the relics of San Gennaro, the city's patron saint, and older churches built into its sides.
A brief history
Three times a year the dried blood of San Gennaro is brought out in the hope it turns liquid; if it doesn't, Neapolitans take it as a bad omen.
