Drottningholm, SwedenPictures by QT Luong |
| On an island in Lake Malar in a suburb of Stockholm, the Royal Domain of Drottningholm, with its castle, its Chinese pavilion and its gardens, is the best example of a northern European 18th-century royal residence inspired by the model of the Palace of Versailles. It is interesting that the Royal Family essentially lives "in the basement", with the really grand areas open to the public, and no serious barriers to the private areas in contrast of other nations presidential or royal palaces. The Royal Domain of Drottningholm is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. |
