A Shore Tour into a World of History & Shopping in Caserta!
Caserta Royal Palace tour starts with a visit to this magnificent building, that was built in 1752 when Charles of Bourbon, King of Naples and Sicily, ordered the construction of a new Capital, with a new palace as a main symbol of his power. This is why he chose Caserta as a location: it had to be outside Naples, far away from the sea and therefore less vulnerable from enemy attacks. Most importantly, the building had to be much more beautiful than any other Royal Building already existing in Europe at the time, even more than Versailles in Paris or Schonbrunn in Vienna. This is why nowadays we can admire one of Italy’s proudest historical sites, the most magnificent Palace ever built on our planet.
This tour is a true experience through history, architectural beauty, unique buildings and a relaxing afternoon in a comfortable air-conditioned outlet center, for your crazy shopping!!!
