The Reggia di Caserta, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site, originated as a royal competition in grandeur. King Charles VII of Bourbon aspired to create a palace that would surpass the Palace of Versailles. Thus, in 1752, he embarked on constructing the world’s largest royal residence. His grand vision was to build a palace that could rival Versailles, and he entrusted this task to the Neapolitan architect Luigi Vanvitelli, who succeeded in creating a palace larger than any other royal residence globally. The palace boasts 1,790 windows and 1,200 rooms. However, King Charles never spent a night there.

In 62 A.D., a powerful earthquake hit the Vesuvius region. Seventeen years later, on August 24, 79 A.D., Mount Vesuvius erupted suddenly, covering Pompeii in ash and lapilli. The buried city was rediscovered in the 16th century, but it wasn’t until 1748 that systematic exploration began under the reign of King Charles III of Bourbon of Naples. Our guide will vividly bring this ancient resort town to life.
