Via Toledo is one of the landmark streets in Naples, created by Spanish viceroy Pedro Álvarez de Toledo, 2nd Marquis of Villafranca in 1536. For centuries it has been a major artery, pumping the lifeblood of the city up and down its corridor. In this regard, it can be compared to Rome’s Via del Corso, Paris’ Avenue des Champs-Élysées, or London’s Bond Street.



Nowadays Via Toledo is a main shopping street offering something for everyone – high-class shopping, street vendors offering cheap shoes and accessories, ice cream booths and cozy restaurants. When it is an official holiday, the street becomes crowded with slowly walking people. Toledo Street is long about 1.2 km.
