We spent Wednesday at the Palace of Caserta, bigger than Versailles and about half an hour from Sant'Agata and a little east of Naples.
The palace itself was magnificent - all marble and frescoes and chandeliers - but 'the park' was equally so. Cascades and fountains run more than three kilometres in a long alley to the foot of a man-made waterfall (and funnily enough, more than three kilometres back again as well...)

War damage is still evident in the chapel |
The waterfall at the end of the basin is still a couple of kilometres away |

The architecture and art is beautiful. Would love to see those stretches of park too. Magnificent!
