Caserta-Royal Palace - a photo on Flickriver

            La Reggia di Caserta, o Palazzo Reale di Caserta, è una dimora storica appartenuta alla casa reale dei Borbone di Napoli, proclamata Patrimonio dell'umanità dall'UNESCO.

Situata nel comune di Caserta, è circondata da un vasto parco nel quale si individuano due settori: il giardino all'italiana, in cui sono presenti diverse fontane e la famosa Grande Cascata, e il giardino all'inglese, caratterizzato da fitti boschi.

In termini di volume, la reggia di Caserta è la più grande residenza reale del mondo con oltre 2 milioni di m³ e copre una superficie di 47.000 m²

The Royal Palace of Caserta (Italian: Reggia di Caserta, Italian pronunciation: [ˌrɛddʒa di kaˈzɛrta]) is a former royal residence in Caserta, southern Italy, constructed for the Bourbon kings of Naples. It was the largest palace and one of the largest buildings erected in Europe during the 18th century. In 1997, the palace was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site, described in its nomination as "the swan song of the spectacular art of the Baroque, from which it adopted all the features needed to create the illusions of multidirectional space". In terms of volume, the Royal Palace of Caserta is the largest royal residence in the world with over 2 million m³ and covers an area of 47,000 m².The construction of the palace was begun in 1752 for Charles VII of Naples, who worked closely with his architect, Luigi Vanvitelli. When Charles saw Vanvitelli's grandly scaled model for Caserta, it filled him with emotion "fit to tear his heart from his breast".
