Cloister of the Clarisse

The cloister of Santa Clara is a haven of peace and beauty. Recently renovated the walls are painted with many pastel frescoes and the garden is dotted with colonnades of majolica decoration, all perfectly in harmony with the trees and shrubs. During my visit a piano was being played and it was a paradise to sit a moment and enjoy the atmosphere prior to visiting Naples or touring the monastery museum and its cradle eighteenth century cradle.
