The statues are marvelous. You should visit just for that. As a popular tourist site, it is a bit crowded, but still well worth it. Full review by Macy H

Well we just spend 4 days and are planning to come back for 4 more! For 1 day I would start in the historic centre and wander up and down the 3 main streets starting with Via Tribunali. Also up Via Toledo starting in Piazza dei Plebiscito. As to what to see it depends on your interests. Art, architecture, food etc. And yes this Museo Cappella Sansevero should be at the top of your list if you love sculpture and architecture. Buy your ticket in advance for a shorter wait. Don't line up for pizza at Sorbillo try one of the others e.g Pizzeria Dal Presidente or L'Antica Pizzeria da Michele. If you love great painting then the Caravaggio at Pio Monte della Misericordia should be on your list. If the weather is good take the funicolare up to Certosa e Museo di San Martino
