Leonardo DiCaprio, accompanied by his parents, could not resist the charm of Palace of Caserta, a masterpiece of Italian baroque. Not everyone knows that the Palace was built at the behest of Charles of Bourbon and wanted to emulate the grandeur of Versailles. With over 1200 rooms and a park that extends for 120 hectares, the Royal Palace of Caserta is a work of art that you can breathe deeply.
