Germany's Romantic Road's renowned palace - Linderhof Palace

On your way to Neuschwanstein Castle, the endpoint of Germany's Romantic Road, you must not miss this famous palace. Linderhof Palace is one of the three castles extravagantly built by King Ludwig II of Bavaria. King Ludwig II was passionate about constructing palaces and castles, and his masterpieces include Germany's greatest castle Neuschwanstein, Linderhof Palace, and Herrenchiemsee Palace. Ironically, he incurred debts of several million yuan for these constructions, yet today, these castles have become the most important source of income for Germany's tourism industry. Linderhof Palace is nestled in the picturesque mountains of the Alps, like a paradise on earth. Tickets are differentiated by specific times and languages, but fortunately, there aren't many visitors. We bought English tickets for a tour starting ten minutes later and even requested a Chinese-speaking guide, although there were no Chinese audio guides available. Overall, Linderhof Palace has a beautiful exterior environment, and the palace itself is not large, just a two-story building. The rooms inside are also quite small, and the decorations are of a classic, intricate European style. King Ludwig II was very reclusive, often living here alone and not allowing outsiders to visit. In addition to the glittering gold decorations on the walls and ceilings, there are also many gold and silver candlesticks and chandeliers, with numerous mirrors used for reflection, creating a dazzling effect. King Ludwig II's favorites were peacocks and swans, hence the palace is adorned with many representations of peacocks and swans.

#fallingforfall #wanderingme #ijustwander Lovely Linderhof Palace Though much smaller than the other palaces we were able to visit (I thought it doesn’t have an impressive facade at first), I must say the Linderhof palace is one of my favorites. Inspired by the Versailles palace in France, the gardens are truly beautiful, and inside the palace were opulent and breathtaking features (too bad taking of photos were not allowed). Perhaps because the rooms are quite smaller, the details of the decorations seems to be more pronounced. Hoping to be able to visit again with more time to explore the grounds someday 😊🍂.
