The Poggio Park is a recent urban park in Naples.
It is located in the residential area of the Aminei Hills.
It is located in a tuff quarry used in the sixties for the construction of part of the nearby Rione Sapio; after the extraction of the tuff, and in a state of neglect for many years, it was finally possible to design this urban park in its area.
In the park there is a children's play area, steps for spectators overlooking a semicircular lake with waterfalls in the center of which there is a platform for shows, and finally there is a belvedere from which you can admire a wide view of the center historic center of Naples and the gulf in the direction of Vesuvius.
In the area of the park there was a Roman sepulchral monument called "la Conocchia", which was destroyed in the sixties.
