Arrive at the park entrance of Villa Pignatelli. Find a quiet spot near the museum building where you can see the sky to the west. The park is still and cool this early.

Watch the sunrise at 06:24. The sun rises in the east, but the golden light that follows will bathe the western-facing facade of the villa and the surrounding trees in a warm, low-angle glow. It is a rare moment of stillness in Naples.
