The inside of this basilica is absolutely beautiful! Unfortunately there’s some graffiti on the outside. I would definitely still come visit if you are in the area.

The Basilica Reale Pontificia di San Francesco di Paola stands out for its impressive dome, which is its most striking feature. However, it seems that some maintenance and restoration work is needed to preserve the building and better showcase its grandeur. Nonetheless, it is worth a visit during your stay in Naples.
