Hi everyone,
I hope you all had a great summer. This summer Drottningholm Palace was one of the many places visited on my visit to Sweden. It all began with Queen Katarina Jagellonica who was presented with the first palace approximately 1580, to honor her it was named Drottningholm, she later died in 1583.
In 1661 Queen Hedvig Eleonora brought Drottnigholm, after it was burnt to the ground the queen had it redesigned and rebuild.
Here are a few pics from the visit:
Cameras are not allowed in the palace so only pictures of the outside and garden were taken.
Take a ferry from Stockholm to the palace
Entrance to the gardens (picture below).
Changing of the guards.
The guard's tent (picture below)
The Chinese Pavilion
Me and my husband sharing a laugh
Below are pictures from Sweden taken on the ferry on our way back from the Palace
The Palace is a must see when in Sweden. It is unfortunate you can't take photos inside, still this should make you all the more intrigued.
Until next time, happy traveling!
