Why Go
The Farnese collection of paintings came to Naples with the Bourbons and fills the palace: Titian's portraits of Pope Paul III, Parmigianino's Antea, Bruegel's Parable of the Blind and Caravaggio's Flagellation of Christ. The royal apartments and porcelain rooms are upstairs.
The Real Bosco around it is the city's largest park.
