Posillipo cableway, Aerial lift in Posillipo district, Naples, Italy.
The Posillipo cableway stretched 1600 meters across Naples, descending 104 meters from the Posillipo ridge to the Mostra d'Oltremare fairgrounds.
The cableway began operations in 1940 and continued service until 1961, with interruptions during World War II when bombings affected the infrastructure.
The cableway station transformed through different roles over time, including housing the Gulliver restaurant for several decades until the 1990s.
The former cable car station now undergoes renovation to become a three-floor restaurant with terraces and gardens spanning 1000 square meters.
The six-minute journey offered riders views of the Gulf of Pozzuoli while serving as a vital connection between Fuorigrotta and the Posillipo districts.
