Blenheim Palace

Home to 11th Duke of Marlborough and the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill

Oxfordshire, United Kingdom

" Set in 2100 acres of beautiful parkland landscaped by 'Capability' Brown, the exquisite Baroque Palace is surrounded by sweeping lawns, formal gardens and the magnificent Lake.

Inside, the scale of the Palace is beautifully balanced by the intricate detail and delicacy of the carvings, the hand painted ceilings and the amazing porcelain collections, tapestries and paintings displayed in each room. On the first floor 'Blenheim Palace: The Untold Story' brings to life enticing tales from the last 300 years. Situated in Woodstock, just 8 miles from Oxford, the Palace was created a World Heritage site in 1987. "

Sunt minunate!

[Saharian]

Multumesc

Din pacate nu este permisa fotografia in interior - este pur si simplu superb - cu multe ornamente in aur masiv si plin de tablouri si tapitzerii cat un perete MARE ...
Si totul intr-o stare de conservare superba

Plin de istoria unei familii faimoase - peste 500 de ani de bogatii acumulate ...

A propos - ultima fotografie, cea a monumentului funerar al lui Winston Churchill - locatia nu e pe teritoriul palatului ci in curtea bisericii din satul invecinat

Cand vad asemenea poze ma intreb de ce nu m-am nascut in 1800...

[Saharian]

Si daca te nasteai servitoarea familiei ? "

[Cristinick]

Oricum ma bucuram de frumusetile astea...
Ce ti-e servitoarea unei familii importante de atunci,ce ti-e servitoarea statului de azi?

[Saharian]

Ai si tu putina dreptate

Nu sa produc invidie e scopul - am crezut ca asa pot aduce o farama de turism virtual celor care deocamdata nu au ajuns acolo
