Royal Linderhof Palace


What a beautiful palace on a beautiful day! We headed out to the castle on a Tuesday morning to explore. King Ludwig II had this castle built here in the Bavarian mountains. The tour was quite interesting! We came to realize that King Lugwig was a little crazy! He came here to live a "fairy tale" in solitude. There was only one bedroom in the whole castle! And there was only enough room for one at the dining room table. This table was "magic". The floor beneath the table lowered down to the kitchen where his servants placed his meals and then raised the table back up for him to eat on. Despite all the weirdness inside the castle, it really was an ornate, gaudy palace. Each room was breathtaking! It was truly a fairy tale place to be.
