Caserta: Palace, Gardens and Fort

We spent a day exploring the Caserta Palace and gardens. People say things are bigger in Texas but these Italians built some huge places!

Picture from inside the palace at the top of the steps. We were trying to imagine them actually building this place and hauling all the marble and construction materials...how did they get it done?

This is a picture from the gardens. Behind the palace was about a 2 miles stretch of garden and terraced fountains, it was beautiful!

We visited the old town of Caserta - Casertachino and enjoyed exploring the old church and fort.
