La Pedamentina
La Pedamentina with its 414 steps is a system of descents and steps dating back to the fourteenth century and built by the architects Tino di Campiono and Francesco de Vito.
The descent was intended to connect two different areas of the city of Naples, namely the Certosa di San Martino and the Castel S. Elmo, located on the hill of the Vomero district, and the historic center, located downstream. Basically, these are pedestrian connection streets between areas of the city affected by expansions outside the moenia, mainly attributable to those that occurred during the sixteenth century.
The climb was also used for defensive purposes in the event of sieges of the nearby Castel S.Elmo.
Along the Pedamentina it is possible to admire not only the panorama of the gulf, but also the gardens and gardens of the Charterhouse. As well as the multiple stairways of the city of Naples, it is today considered an urban masterpiece.

Wonderful point of view ... you show the altitude difference between the districts of Naples very impressively. I think nowadays Castel S. Elmo has a spectacular view on the ocean of houses, but you have to work for it. :-)Best wishes, Gisela

Mi fa pensare alle creuze genovesi che dalle alture scendono verso il mare, offrendo splendide vedute della città... Bello scorcio, buona definizione e piacevoli cromielucy franco 12/06/2020 23:02
