The Museo e Real Bosco di Capodimonte in Naples, Italy, is the getaway that doesn’t require going away. Once a palace and hunting grounds for King Charles VII of Naples and Sicily, the public venue features a museum boasting works from celebrated Italian artists such as Caravaggio, Raphael and Artemisia Gentileschi.

It also has more than 331,000 acres of woodland, open space, picnic areas and paved walkways and trails. Two cafes offer food and beverages. It’s all situated practically in the heart of Naples, so there’s no need to travel far to take in Italian culture and feel a world away from the chaotic din of the city.
