The Funicolare vesuviana was a funicular railway up Mount Vesuvius that operated from 1880 to 1944. She became known through the advertising song Funiculì, Funiculà, which was composed for the opening of the railway. The railway operated as a monorail from 1880 to 1900 and as a normal funicular from 1903 to 1944.

Vesuvius is an active volcano located on the Gulf of Naples. Unfortunately clouds and fog came. But it was a mystical atmosphere that had a special flair. Again, only mobile phone photos, because viewing the photos will take some time.

The climb is definitely worth it in clear weather. The view of Naples and the Gulf of Naples is incredible. The crater itself is also worth a visit. However, you shouldn't expect too much from it; it's just a huge hole filled with scree.
