In brief

  • Corso Giannone takes you straight into the Royal Park, and you can see just as much as from the main entrance.
  • The ticket office has been open since 1 October 2026; in November and December its hours are 8:30 to 14:30.
  • For the palace, park and English Garden the official website recommends Piazza Carlo di Borbone; for the park and English Garden only, Corso Giannone.
  • Cyclists can only enter from Corso Giannone.

Two entrances, the same visit

The palace website explains that choosing one entrance or the other does not change the route of your visit. What changes is the distance: from Piazza Carlo di Borbone you go into the palace and come out into the park through the Cannocchiale, the passage that runs through the building; from Corso Giannone you are among the trees of the park straight away.
