Reviewed By A5136BBcolinb

The palace has been transformed from a derelict to its original grandeur and the grounds transformed into a veritable fairyland of walkways among trees and gardens, fountains and canals. The gardens are only open during the summer. The palace is open on a very limited schedule. Very few are permitted. It you ever have an opportunity, TAKE IT!
