It is served by the Pietrarsa-S.Giorgio a Cremano station to which it is connected by a pedestrian subway. The museum contains original engines as well as scale models incorporated into a display of the history of trains in Italy. The museum is located on the premises of the former metal foundry of the Kingdom of Naples, a plant that produced most of the boilers for locomotives and steam-driven ships in the kingdom in the first half of the 19th century. The displays include, further to a huge number of historical locomotives and saloons, a copy of Bayard, the first locomotive in Italy, which started its run on the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naples%E2%80%93Portici_railway" class="extiw" title="w:Naples–Portici railway">Naples-Portici railway</a> line on 3 October 1838. </p><p>Directly placed on the sea, the Museum has both covered and open spaces which are used as a place for parties, and it allows a 180° view on the Gulf of Naples. The place is easily reached by train from the Naples Central station in about 10 minutes.

The royal residence was moved to Caserta in the 18th century, as that inland town was more defensible from naval assault than Naples.

Within walking distance it is available a wide array of places where to have dinner, from top-class restaurants, to countless "pizzerie", fast foods and ethnic restaurants (chinese and kebab are common). We especially recommend not to lose a walk through Via Toledo and Via Chiaia (5 minutes by walk), the main shopping streets in Naples, where many places where to eat and have a neapolitan coffee (plus a babà or a sfogliatella) are available. Also within walking distance (10 minutes) there is Piazza del Plebiscito, the square where both Palazzo Reale and its gardens, and S. Francesco di Paola church are. With a longer walk (15 minutes) or by taking tram just in front of Stazione Marittima, it is possible to reach Castel dell'Ovo, the Naples' City Garden (Villa Comunale), which is including the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stazione_Zoologica" class="extiw" title="w:Stazione Zoologica">Naples' Aquarium</a> and via Caracciolo, the panoramic street along sea side, visible in all Naples' iconic representations. </p> <ul class="gallery mw-gallery-traditional"> <li class="gallerybox" style="width: 155px"> <div class="thumb" style="width: 150px;

A non-comprehensive list of the most notable monuments and sites includes: </p> <ul><li><b><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ospedale_L%27Albergo_Reale_dei_Poveri,_Naples" class="extiw" title="w:Ospedale L'Albergo Reale dei Poveri, Naples">Albergo dei Poveri</a></b> (Bourbon Hospice for the Poor) is a former public hospital/almshouse. It was designed by the architect <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferdinando_Fuga" class="extiw" title="w:Ferdinando Fuga">Ferdinando Fuga</a>, and construction was started in 1751. It is five storeys tall and about 300 m long. It was popularly known as "Palazzo Fuga". King <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_III_of_the_House_of_Bourbon" class="extiw" title="w:Charles III of the House of Bourbon">Charles III of the House of Bourbon</a> meant the facility to house the destitute and ill, as well as to provide a self-sufficient community where the poor would live and work. The building was originally designed with five courtyards and a church in the centre, but only the three innermost courtyards were built, and plans to complete the building according to the original design were finally abandoned in 1819. It is no longer a hospital, and has suffered much from neglect and earthquakes. The centre behind the entrance is used for exhibitions, conferences, and concerts. Recently (2006) the façade has undergone restoration as part of a plan to incorporate the facility into the working infrastructure of public buildings in Naples.</li> <li><b><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Francesco_di_Paola_(Naples)" class="extiw" title="w:San Francesco di Paola (Naples)">San Francesco di Paola</a></b> is one of the main churches in Naples, located at the west side of Piazza del Plebiscito, the city's main square. The place was originally planned by King Joachim Murat of Naples (Napoleon's brother-in-law) as a tribute to the emperor. When Napoleon was dispatched, Ferdinand I of Bourbon continued the construction but converted the final product into the church one sees today. The church is reminiscent of the Pantheon in Rome. The façade is fronted by a portico resting on six columns and two Ionic pillars. Inside, the church is circular with two side chapels. The dome is 53 metres high.</li> <li><b><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cappella_Sansevero" class="extiw" title="w:Cappella Sansevero">Cappella Sansevero</a></b>. Built on 1590, it contains works of art by some of the leading Italian artists of the 18th century, like the extraordinary <i>Veiled Christ</i> by <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giuseppe_Sanmartino" class="extiw" title="w:Giuseppe Sanmartino">Giuseppe Sanmartino</a>.

The castle's name comes from a legend about the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_Republic" class="extiw" title="w:Roman Republic">Roman</a> poet <i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virgil" class="extiw" title="w:Virgil">Virgil</a></i>, who had a reputation in medieval times as a great sorcerer, that he put a magical egg into the foundations to support the fortifications. The island of Megaride was where Greek colonists from <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumae" class="extiw" title="w:Cumae">Cumae</a> founded the original nucleus of the city in the 6th century BC. In the 1st century BC the Roman patrician <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucullus" class="extiw" title="w:Lucullus">Lucius Licinius Lucullus</a> built the magnificent villa <i>Castellum Lucullanum</i> on the site. The first castle on the site was built by the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italo-Normans" class="extiw" title="w:Italo-Normans">Normans</a> in the 12th century.</li> <li><b><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castel_Nuovo" class="extiw" title="w:Castel Nuovo">Castel Nuovo</a></b>, ("New Castle"), often called <i>Maschio <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capetian_House_of_Anjou" class="extiw" title="w:Capetian House of Anjou">Angioino</a></i>, is a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_Ages" class="extiw" title="w:Middle Ages">medieval</a> castle and the main symbol of the architecture of the city. It was first begun in 1279 by <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_I_of_Anjou" class="extiw" title="w:Charles I of Anjou">Charles I of Anjou</a> and completed three years later. Castel Nuovo soon became the nucleus of the historical center of the city, and was often the site of famous events. For example, on December 13, 1294, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Celestine_V" class="extiw" title="w:Pope Celestine V">Pope Celestine V</a> resigned as pope in a hall of the castle. The event was famously depicted by <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dante_Alighieri" class="extiw" title="w:Dante Alighieri">Dante Alighieri</a> in his masterpiece la <i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divina_Commedia" class="extiw" title="w:Divina Commedia">Divina Commedia</a></i>, in the verse <i>Colui che per viltade fece il gran rifiuto</i>.</li> <li><b><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certosa_di_San_Martino" class="extiw" title="w:Certosa di San Martino">Certosa di San Martino</a></b>, a former monastery complex, now a museum. It is the most visible landmark of the city, perched atop the Vomero hill that commands the gulf. A Carthusian monastery, it was finished and inaugurated under the rule of Queen Joan I in 1368. In 1623, it was further expanded and became, under the direction of architect Cosimo Fanzago, essentially the structure one sees today. In the early 19th century, under French rule the monastery was closed and was abandoned by the religious order. Today, the buildings house a museum with a display of Spanish and Bourbon era artifacts, as well as displays of the presepe--Nativity scene—considered to be among the finest in the world.</li> <li><b><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ges%C3%B9_Nuovo" class="extiw" title="w:Gesù Nuovo">Gesù Nuovo</a></b> The Church of Gesù Nuovo (New Jesus) was originally a palace built in <a href="/w/index.php?title=1470&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="1470 (page does not exist)">1470</a> for Roberto Sanseverino, Prince of Salerno. The Jesuits had already built a church in Naples, now called Gesú Vecchio. Political intrigues caused the property to be confiscated, and eventually sold in the 1580s to the Jesuits to construct a church (1584–1601) under architect <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giuseppe_Valeriano" class="extiw" title="w:Giuseppe Valeriano">Giuseppe Valeriano</a>. The unusual facade, unusually plain for a Baroque style church, is of rusticated ashlar and is the original façade of the palace.

A world-famous archeological site, part of the UNESCO World Heritage list. It was an ancient Roman town destroyed, together with Pompeii, Oplontis and Stabiae, by volcanic pyroclastic flows of Vesuvius, AD 79. It is famous as the source of the first Roman skeletal and physical remains available for study that were located by science, for the Romans almost universally cremated their dead.</li> <li><b><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pompeii" class="extiw" title="w:Pompeii">Pompeii</a></b> (25 km) The world-famous city of Pompeii is a partially buried Roman urban center, and one of the best examples of Roman architecture in the world. Along with Herculaneum, Pompeii was destroyed and completely buried during a long catastrophic eruption of the volcano Mount Vesuvius spanning two days in the year AD 79. The eruption buried Pompeii under 4 to 6 m (13 to 20 ft) of ash and pumice, and it was lost for nearly 1700 years before its accidental rediscovery in 1749. Since then, its excavation has provided an extraordinarily detailed insight into the life of a city at the height of the Roman Empire. Today, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is one of the most popular tourist attractions of Italy, with approximately 2,500,000 visitors every year. Pompeii epopea was famously depicted in a huge number of movies, under the common name of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Last_Days_of_Pompeii" class="extiw" title="w:The Last Days of Pompeii">The Last Days of Pompeii</a>.

In 1997, the Palace was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site, described in its nomination as "<i>the swan song of the spectacular art of the Baroque, from which it adopted all the features needed to create the illusions of multidirectional space</i>". Caserta was used as the location for Queen Amidala's Royal Palace on Naboo in the 1999 film <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars_Episode_I:_The_Phantom_Menace" class="extiw" title="w:Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace">Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace</a> and again in the 2002 film <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars_Episode_II:_Attack_of_the_Clones" class="extiw" title="w:Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones">Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones</a> as Queen Jamilla's palace. The same room was also used in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mission:_Impossible_III" class="extiw" title="w:Mission: Impossible III">Mission: Impossible III</a> as Vatican City. In fact, the square where the Lamborghini is blown up is actually the square inside the Palace. The main staircase is also used in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angels_%26_Demons_(film)" class="extiw" title="w:Angels & Demons (film)">Angels & Demons</a> as the Vatican's staircase. The mezzo soprano Cecilia Bartoli used the palace as primary location for the film "<i>L'art des castrats</i>" that accompanies her album "<i>Sacrificium</i>", dedicated to the music written for the castrato singers of the baroque period.</li> <li><b><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capri" class="extiw" title="w:Capri">Capri</a></b> (40 km by boat or hydrofoil) An international turistic destination, it is an island on the south side of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulf_of_Naples" class="extiw" title="w:Gulf of Naples">Gulf of Naples</a>, which has been a resort since the time of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_Republic" class="extiw" title="w:Roman Republic">Roman Republic</a>.

Procida was held by Mycene in the period between the 16th and 15th centuries BC. During the 8th century BC the first Greek settlers to this island were immediately replaced by other Greek peoples coming from Cuma. During Roman rule, Procida became a renowned resort for the patrician class of Rome. Nowadays is a renowed balnear locality.</li> <li><b><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Leucio" class="extiw" title="w:San Leucio">San Leucio</a></b> (38 km) San Leucio is a frazione of the comune of Caserta, most notable for a resort developed around an old silk factory, included in the UNESCO World Heritage sites list in 1997. In 1750 Charles VII of Naples selected this place for an unusual social and tecnological experiment, a different model of silk production based on technical innovation and alert to the needs of workers. It is considered one of the first examples of socialism, a closed community where life and work were closely connected and planned. Today the San Leucio heritage still survives today in the local silk and textile firms, which work on an international scale to elite foreign clients as the Buckingham Palace, the White House, the Quirinale Palace, the Palazzo Chigi.</li> <li><b><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ischia" class="extiw" title="w:Ischia">Ischia</a></b> (40 km by boat or hydrofoil) is a volcanic island which lies at the northern end of the Gulf of Naples. It is the largest of the Phlegrean Islands. The main industry is tourism, centering on thermal spas that cater mostly to European (especially German) and Asian tourists eager to enjoy the fruits of the island's natural volcanic activity, its thermal hot springs, and its volcanic mud. For many of the inhabitants on the Italian-speaking island, German and English are second languages. This is because of the large number of German- and English-speaking tourists who visit the island each year.</li> <li><b><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorrento" class="extiw" title="w:Sorrento">Sorrento</a></b> (50 km).

Drinking a sufficient amount of water, limiting the consumption of fat-rich food and alcohol during the day, and avoiding to get around in the hottest hours (between 12.00 and 4.00 pm) are normally effective measures. Very white, soft-skin individuals can easily avoid sunburns by wearing cotton or linen short-sleeve shirts, using appropriate solar creams and wearing sunglasses when exposing to daylight. The above-mentioned measures only apply to excursions in the city during the day, while no problems are perceivable in the interior of the buildings, namely the conference sites, which are all air-conditioned. At night, temperature significantly lowers (average is 18 °C/64 °F), and a frequent wind from the sea makes dining and walking outside very comfortable.</dd></dl></dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Team" data-mw-thread-id="h-Team-Weaknesses"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Team-Weaknesses"></span>Team<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Team-Weaknesses"></span></h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikimania_2013_bids/Naples&action=edit&section=62" title="Edit section: Team"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <dl><dd>Whilst including a number of experienced professionals, the proposing team has collectively no former experience of organizing global events, and it is not currently supported by the local WMF chapter.</dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><b>Solution</b>: The Team is composed by Wikipedians with long experience in working together on collaborative basis, mainly based in Naples or in near proximity to the town.
