"Het Loo" Palace

Another view of "Het Loo" Palace. The palace is imbued with the lives and times of the Royal Family. It was the favourite palace of stadholder William III and Mary II and later Queen Wilhelmina.

In the 17th century garden I almost felt walking in a French Loire castle.

The berceaus of green seen from the inside, you walk through a passage of green leaves. Have a look at their website.

  3. Oh, I forgot to tell you. I just read an article that said that people living in your area are some of the happiest (and tallest) people in the world! Makes a good argument for visiting! :)

  5. The gardens are magnificent - I can't imagine how many gardeners it would take to maintain them in such a maicured state. Beautiful!

  6. T.,
    Yes I read it too and I think it is true, although some people don't realize how lucky they are to live in a quiet country and complain about stupid things.Tall we are for sure I am 1.75m and many young ones are 1.90m or more. Come and see!
    Rick,
    Nice you enjoy my blog so much, a trip to memory lane for you. Groetjes!
