Caserta Tour

Went with my dad on a random Thursday. The palace is ENORMOUS, like you think you’ve seen a big hallway but then boom—another one, even fancier. I kept losing track of how many painted ceilings I’d seen. Bit of advice: bring water. I didn’t and was regreting it by room #7. Staff were chill, but didn’t speak much English, so we just sort of nodded at each other. The fountains outside are worth the walk (yes, it’s a trek, but it’s pretty and there’s shade sometimes). My dad loved the old statues, I was obsessed with the floor tiles. Didn’t get to see everything because my feet gave up. Def wanna come back for the gardens alone.

The palace is as stunning as folks say. Went with my husband and we were both wowed by the staircase. The hall of mirrors is like, next-level pretty. Only downside was how stuffy it got, not much air flow inside. We stopped for gelato at the exit—perfect ending.
