Building of the Parterre in the Waterway
Carlo Vanvitelli completed the Royal Palace and the Park after the death of his father Luigi. To cut time and construction costs, he was forced to reduce the size of the park, and the number of fountains. Where now you see the big green lawn, there should have been a further fountain.
- To restore the whole design of the so-called “waterway”, but without having to make structural changes, as you can see in the image, two large flowering half with blue flowers recall the color of water. A border with flower pots will give movement as in the original parterre by Vanvitelli;
- The waterway can be completed with the flower parterre and flower vases as desired by the Architect.
