Beneath Naples Cathedral we can visit an archaeological area with remains of Greek and Roman buildings and of the city's first Christian churches.From the basilica of Santa Restituta we reach the baptistery of San Giovanni in Fonte, considered the oldest in the West, with its 4th–5th-century mosaics.
