Hearst Castle
We would love to hear about your recent experience. Please share any pictures and review of the place you visited. We greatly appreciate your feedback!
Hearst Castle, located in San Simeon, United States, is a National Historic Landmark and California Historical Landmark that stands as a testament to the opulence of the early 20th century. Commissioned by newspaper magnate William Randolph Hearst and designed by architect Julia Morgan, the castle is a blend of various architectural styles, featuring 165 rooms and over 127 acres of gardens, terraces, pools, and walkways.
Visitors to Hearst Castle can marvel at the grandeur of the Neptune Pool, an outdoor swimming pool surrounded by ancient Roman-style architecture and adorned with marble statues. Inside, the Gothic Suite, Hearst’s private quarters, is a must-see, filled with an extensive collection of European antiques and art. The castle also offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, making it a popular tourist destination.
Plan your visit
Planning ahead is key to make the most of your visit to Hearst Castle. Here are some tips and tricks: Book your tickets in advance as tours can quickly sell out. Bring comfortable shoes and clothing as parts of the tour require a lot of walking. Pack plenty of sunscreen, sun hats, and water bottles - the coastal climate can be unforgiving! Check out their website for special events or activities that may be taking place during your visit - such as “Behind-the-Scenes” tours or lectures. Lastly, arrive early at least 15 minutes before your scheduled tour time so you don’t miss out on any part of it!
