THERE IS AS MUCH TO SEE BELOW GROUND IN LA SANITÀ, NAPLES, AS ABOVE In the Hellenistic period, it was a sacred burial ground and beneath the soft tufo stone lies a warren of tunnels and hollowed-out chambers. The highlight is the Ipogeo dei Cristallini, a Greco-Roman crypt. The San Gennaro and San Gaudioso catacombs are run by a social cooperative, La Paranza, which employs young people from the neighbourhood and offers a fascinating tour.
