Caserta - Buses and Buses - Transportation - Attractions and Monuments

Caserta is a picturesque town located in the southwestern part of sunny Italy. For many years, due to its numerous tourist attractions, regional folklore or beautiful landscape, it has attracted masses of tourists, both from Italy itself and other countries.

From our bus stop, which is located at the train station in Piazza Garibaldi, we suggest a short walk towards the city's main attraction which is the Royal Palace of Caserta, built in the 18th century, designed by the famous architect Ludwig van WIttel. In addition to the beautiful and powerful palace (modeled on Versailles), you can admire the English and French gardens, which are dotted with many water cascades, fountains and numerous sculptures. Also interesting is the number of palace rooms, of which there are 1,200, making the entire building one of the largest in Europe. After a longer but very fruitful walk, it is also worth seeing the Belvedere di San Leucio, which is another building that is a testament to the glorious Bourbon era. The multitude of royal apartments, the silk museum and the magnificent collection of musical instruments will leave anyone in awe and make a visit here an extraordinary experience. Another attraction is also the Benedictine Basilica of Formis with a very well-preserved cycle of Romanesque frescoes, which was erected in the 6th century on the remains of the Roman temple of Diana. While in Caserta, it is also worth strolling through the narrow streets of the medieval village of Casertavecchia. Admittedly, it is not located in the very center of the city, but the medieval buildings, the beautiful cathedral, still built of stone, along with the Romanesque chapel perfectly reflect the style of those times. In addition, numerous cafes and local restaurants, decorated in an atmospheric style, are a respite for any tourist, who, with an aromatic espresso, can relax and feel the atmosphere of the old town.
