Melito sits on Naples' northern rim, where the city continues without noticing into the old hamlets of the Giugliano plain: its name appears in Angevin registers, and the parish church of Santa Maria delle Grazie keeps its devout heart. The historic Neapolitan glove-making trade had workshops and skilled hands here.
It is a young, dense town — among Italy's densest — living on trade and proximity: central Naples is a metro ride away, the Phlegraean area and the Domitian coast fifteen minutes. A weekday gate of greater Naples.
