Palazzo Farnese in Caprarola, Italy, was quite a surprise to me when I visited it. It is regarded as one of the most important Renaissance and Mannerist palaces of Italy.

Vor ein paar Tagen #caprarola besucht. Nettes kleines Städtchen ohne viel Tourismus. Und nur einer Sehenswürdigkeit.
Allgemein scheint es in der Region Latium weniger Tourismus zu geben. Ist ganz angenehm.

A volte vedi un posto che senti subito tuo e dove vuoi sederti con un libro, forse "Corriere del sud" di Exupéry, dove c'è così tanta bellezza, amore e amicizia.
