We came down a corridor ... What a nice building!
→We walked on a pathway towards the castle...The building was awesome!!!

This picture is the same as the picture in the first pase of my blog.

From leaflet・・・
The original castle was founded last 1067. This castle is one of the longest inhabited country houses in England. Many of its original features such as the crenellated Norman keep, gatehouse , barbican and the lower part of Bevis Tower survive. Between the 1870s and 1890s the house was almost completely rebuilt and the magnificent architecture in Gothic style is considered to be one of the great works of Victorian England.

This one is a beautiful garden in the castle.
It looks like Asian-style.
This garden is "the Collector Earl's Gargen". It is the garden's name.





There is a fountain in a domed pergola in the garden.
And a crown was floating on top of the fountain.


This is a beautiful outside view from part of ambulatory in the castle.
→A wonderful view taken when I was on the ambulatory part of the castle.

We couldn't take pictures inside the castle because it is under the ban prohibited.
We can saw many traditional rooms, furnitures, portraits, books...etc inside the castle.
...Some narrow dark parts(ex. stairs in the columnar building) makes me a little bit scared... 


This is the other gate of the castle. I took this picture from the outside.

One foot out the gate and the view returned back to a normal life.
