The alley of the Spanish Quarters in Naples has become an open-air museum, where numerous artists have left works dedicated to Toto' and other great Neapolitan artists. Murals, posters and photos of the prince of smiles and his colleagues such as Nino Taranto, Peppino De Filippo have transformed the few meters of via Portacarrese in Montecalvario into an installation that has become a point of attraction for tourists and fans.

Tourists who have long been wandering through the alleys near Via Roma, once an area strongly discouraged in guides because it was considered dangerous, stop in large numbers to take photos before treating themselves to lunch or a pizza in one of the many restaurants that, with their openings, are contributing to the neighborhood's revival.
