Once we had finished our visit of the interior of the Palazzo Reale, we headed outside, to see the courtyards and gardens!

In one of the courtyards, you can see sculptures of horses by Mimmo Paladino, which look as if they are struggling to free themselves from the earth.

Just off Via Cesario Console, in a small park area, you will find the Statua di Augusto, or the Statue of Augustus.  This is a bronze copy of the famous statue, now in the Vatican Museums in Rome.

By now, we were hungry, and so, we decided to stop at a restaurant with tables outside, overlooking the bay, and have some lunch.

From our table, we had a great view of Mount Vesuvius, directly across the bay.

Next up: We finish up our last day in Naples, and then, head over to the beautiful island of Ischia!
