Cloister Garden of Santa Chiara Monastery, Naples

This famous Cloister Garden was transformed in 1742 by Domenico Antonio Vaccaro with the unique addition of majolica tiles in the Rococò style. [thanks Wikipedia]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Santa Chiara Monastery also had an 18th Century Nativity Scene. I hope you can read this description.

 

 

 

 

After this we headed to a pizza restaurant for lunch. It is Napoli, birthplace of pizza after all. I was surprised when our traveling companions announced they wanted a frutti di mare (seafood) pizza. We were all surprised by what they were served. Mmmmmm crunchy!
