My husband toured this huge, beautiful palace without me during our August holiday last year. My sore feet were happy to miss all the walking, but I was sorry to miss such beauty—however, my husband got some wonderful shadow shots!

INCREDIBLE photos! Wow! Kay, it's so funny, I just commented on Mary's poem, saying how I watched the flames in my grandma's fireplace when I was little, then posted it and looked up and saw your comment saying the same thing. Are you sure we're not cousins? hee hee!
Wow...these are breathtaking...I can only dream of actually seeing these sights with my own eyes.
What an amazing palace - I'm glad that you and your husband did such a good job sharing it with us!
This actually would be a good candidate for my meme: Whimsical Windows, Delirious Doors. Feel free to stop by and link up, if you like!
