Hearst Castle


This indoor pool (beneath the tennis court) is completely covered in mosaic. There was no water in the pool, but you can see where the water went further into the house with the shallower canal.

Real gold mosaic tiles.

The movie theater.


The dining room that reminded us of Harry Potter (complete with ketchup and mustard).

This was torn down and rebuilt because it was originally one tower, but Hearst changed his mind and had to have two.



The Neptune pool...all the statues and pillars are marble.


He built it 5 miles up on a hill for the view. Somewhere in there he had the world's largest private zoo.


Tuckered out kids...
