The city is known for its rich history, art, culture, and architecture. It is also over 2,800 years old, so there are a lot of tourists coming and going. As for bars and places to drink, there are a bunch of places you can try: Le Belle Choses (good place for someone who loves beer), Shannon: Irish Pub, or Mouse Club: Naples clubbing It is also a US Navy port call location, so dont be suprised to see drunk US sailors.
