DUTCH ROYAL FOR A DAY


On my first weekend in Holland, my host family took me to one of the most luxurious castles the country has to offer. Its not everyday you get to visit a real life castle, but had no expectations regardless. The grounds are littered with flowers and large oak trees that were specially brought in for the Duchess's husband.
 
The castle is just as breath-taking as the gardens, if not more so! The magnitude of its size is quite something to take in, moat included!
 
The interior architecture of the castle, as excessive as it is really is quite beautiful! Ornate decorative motifs fill every inch of the walls and ceiling and the main entrance hall boasts an open space leading up till the 6th floor.
 
There is definitely no sense of claustrophobia in this p(a)lace that's for sure
