Breathtaking views of Naples: the Monte Echia elevator is finally open

Apr 13, 2024 2031

The elevator that connects Via Santa Lucia and the Chiatamone in 30 seconds with the beautiful Pizzofalcone hill in Naples, where the extraordinary Belvedere has been redeveloped that will allow people to look out from Monte Echia and enjoy a stunning view of the city's gulf, has finally been reopened these days. 

The beautiful hill of Monte Echia, the hill of Partenope, near Villa Ebe which will hopefully also be redeveloped, will be easily accessible from Via Santa Lucia by elevator and one will be able to look out from a belvedere to admire from above Castel dell'Ovo, the Borgo Marinari and the splendid panorama.

On the hill is the headquarters of the State Archives where the fiction "I bastardi di Pizzofalcone" was filmed. From the belvedere an extraordinary panorama from Capodimonte to Vesuvius, from Sorrento to Capri, from Castel dell'Ovo to Posillipo.

Two elevators have been built that in 30 seconds lead to one of the city's most beautiful belvederes, the one on Mount Echia, the very spot where the first nucleus of Parthenope was founded by the Cumanians towards the end of the eighth century BC.

An extraordinary, beautiful and panoramic place that can be conveniently reached, finally returned to the city.
