Day 4 in SF -- Hearst Castle

We set off early for Hearst Castle. It’s just an unbelieveable trip! You can hardly believe that the Hearst can be THAT rich, so rich that they bought arces of land and bought the whole sea view! All these lands and the castle are now donated to the state government.

This is an outdoor swimming pool. All the cravings and status are cut out of marbles. It got an excellent view.
The golden parts that you see are real 24K gold. This building is just for the guests which contains 15 individual rooms.
This is the main building where Mr. Hearst stayed. Outside, the view is georgeous. Inside, it feels like a museum with numerous antiques artifacts hold.
All the tapestries hanging on the walls are over 500 years. These is a moisac on the floor which is over 1800 years. Everything, including the seats, chairs, tables, status are over a hundred years. Every piece comes from different eras but you feel so cozy and neat there.
Oh, this is the most amazing place. This is an indoor pool. Isn’t it breathe-taking? I really want to jump in and have a nice swim.

After this amazing trip, we head back to San Francisco. On our way home, we visit more wineries which is as fun as that in Napa (or I would rather say, a little better). My friend which is like a 3 hours drive. Bt the time we got home, it was like 7pm. My friend is exhausted. We have a quick dinner and head home directly.

It’s a really nice trip! Soooo happy!
