Royal Palace of Caserta, a Baroque Masterpiece

Located just an hour train ride outside of Naples, the Royal Palace of Caserta is the world’s largest palace by volume and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Built by the kings of Naples in the 18th century in order to rival their relatives who had built the Palace of Versailles, it is considered to be the ultimate expression of Baroque architecture and you will need a full day or more in order to see the palace, park and gardens.
