Caserta Royal Palace plus Pompeii - Excursions from Port
The Royal Palace, a symbol of Caserta and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is one of the most important monuments of the Italian artistic heritage. It was designed in the 18th Century by the architect Luigi Vanvitelli, according to the will of Charles III, Duke of Bourbon. The Reggia di Caserta (that is, the Royal Palace) is a real masterpiece of architecture and decoration, and it houses many works of art. The immense dwelling comprises four courtyards and over a thousand rooms, chapels, museums, and theatres. In the 120-hectare park surrounding it, wide boulevards, fountains, waterfalls, and magnificent gardens tell of an extremely rich and refined lifestyle. The residence is an explosion of art, marble statues, paintings, stuccoes, and furniture that all speak of an immense fortune and good taste that one of the greatest and oldest European aristocratic families expressed. During the catastrophe of 79 AD, Vesuvius buried the entire city of Pompeii, whose excavations today represent one of the main tourist destinations in the Campania region, as they return the image of a Roman city in its entirety. Pompeii has been named a World Heritage Site by UNESCO and has become a large archaeological park where you can admire the ancient Baths, the Temple of Venus, the Temple of Apollo, a pre-Roman basilica, the civil forum, the heart of the economic, religious and social life of the 'ancient city. And yet the Macellum, the Temple of Jupiter, the Temple of Vespasian, and the Sanctuary of the Public Lares protectors of the city.
