Fredericksborg Castle

So, this last Sunday we took a break from working in studio to go on a tour of Frederickborg Castle which is about an hour outside of Copenhagen. It was well worth it. We started off with a drive along the Eastern coast heading north. It was beautiful. We then headed inland a little through some wood and field areas. As much as I love the city it was nice to get out of it for a while. When we got to the castle we walked through a very nice garden that gave spectacular views of the castle and other great buildings. We then met our guide in front of the main entrance of the castle. He proceeded to explain the history of the castle, which was rather fascinating. I learned many things about the history of Denmark, such as that it is the longest lasting state in the world. Inside the castle was amazing as well, we first went into the church which was a whole wing itself. Above the church is the Great Hall which is used for various events, mainly for large gatherings though as you can see from the size. We continued through the rest of the castle where there were a plethora of paintings, furniture and other artifacts. After we were done with the tour we headed back to the bust through a neat little town. All in all it was a very good day and a nice break from studio.
