 Trenitalia by iNorv9 The train is the best public transportation option for getting to Caserta. It also drops you off right in front of the Reggia, only 400m away. Trains depart Napoli Central about every half hour or so, and the journey takes about 40 minutes. Theme: Train

 Avenue of statues at Caserta by unravelau From the palace to the last fountain the roadway is straight . Fountains, pools, statues and various other sculptures around little stairways lead you up to the next level. When you reach the end of these, the roadway broadens and forms a semi-circular avenue marked by a wall (decorated with these statues). It is a very beautiful sight. Google links the Palace to an episode of star trek or star wars (if I remember correctly). Leave a Comment Address: Caserta in Campania.Directions: North east of Naples. I trained from Formia but connection is too slow. There may be a bus from Naples.Website: Google Caserta Palace

 The staircase by Polly74 The majestic main staircase, whose 116 steps were all carved from one gigantic block of stone, is a perfect combination of rich marbles and dramatic perspectives. It leads to the splendiferous 25 rooms of the royal apartments. In the ceiling there was a space for musicians who started to play music as soon as the king entered the Reggia. Leave a Comment

 Alessandro Farnese statue by Polly74 The second antechamber, of the Guards of the Body, is the richest one with its putties: groups of putti helding flags. Doors and windows are surmounted from panels representing historical episodes of the antiquity happened in the kingsdome. Of forehead to the windows there's a marble sculpture representing Alexander Farnese crown from the Victory. Leave a Comment

In this second stage of the walk you will first see a large flat pool, with live fishes in them, they look like carps.. At the end there is a nice large fountain with many statues. There wasn't any water spouting from the statues at that time, but the poses of the statues really define the scene to be quite like a great painting. Unfortunately the front of the fountain was barricaded so you can't get close to the waters..

At the end of this walk, you will come to a spectacular fountain with sculpture works by Paolo Persico, Angelo Brunelli and Pietro Solari, depicting the mythilogical episode of Diana and Actaeon, with the spectacular man made water fountain as the backdrop.

When you first visit this palace, you will only not see the "grandness" of the scale of the palace. The palace building looks basically just a longish rectagular complex from the front. I think maybe it's because during my visit, there was some construction for the gardens going on for the front of the palace, which is typical for any palace to have in the front for people to get a sense of size when approaching it. There was an alternate route along the main roads to get to the castle. I think when the construction is completed, you can access directly for the main train station there. Directions: Take the trenitalia train from Naples.

The Entrance to the castle leads to a long corridor along the complex and straight to the gardens at the back (you won't notice this until you walk to the end!). The ticket counter is here, and they have different tickets (for the palace rooms, the gardens, or both). Somewhere along midway on the left is the entrance to the castle's rooms. Coming back on the topic of the gardens! If you get to the end of the corridor, your eyes will only see the end of this immensely long water park, which looks like it doesn't end. At the end somewhat you could make out a waterfall like thing at the hill in the background. Refer to pic 5, but pictures cannot express the feeling of it being there..

Follow me on the long Gardens walk at Reggia di Caserta!.. It's actually long walk on foot ~40 mins +++, but you're having this comfort from your PC! This is 1st stage on of the walk, which starts from the castle complex to the first roundabout. In this stage, there are no fountains, just a large flat area of grass. If you're there, i think there are other options to get to the end of the gardens like the bus and also the horse carriage.
