Kasteel De Haar

Dehar Castle is located in a small town called Haaruilens near the Dutch city of Utrecht. Dehar Castle is a typical European medieval castle, towering towers, palace-style gardens surrounded by moats and suspension bridges, like a dream castle in a fairy tale world. Need to buy tickets to go in, February is still very cold, there are not many tourists to visit.

The castle in the Netherlands seems to be not as famous as other castles in Europe and the United States. But in fact, there are too many famous castles like Swan Castle, and they can't look good at all. Instead, the castle in Dehar is worth seeing.

The Dehar Castle in Utrecht (DE HAAR CASTLE UTRECHT) is the largest and most beautiful castle in the Netherlands. The moat is surrounded by suspension bridges; the towering towers, the red brick walls, the red and white doors and windows are like dream castles in the fairy tale world.

To Utrecht, this castle is highly recommended. The latest price on July 29 is 16 euros for adults and 10 euros for children. The price is a little high, but we played for five hours and it was worth it. Don't go there by train. We were fooled by poor travel strategies and wasted 12 euros. The fastest and cheapest way is to take Bus No. 9 from the bus stop in front of the Central Railway Station. The whole journey is 2.7 Euros per person. There are English explanations in it. It's very convenient. Not many people, not many Chinese, not many teams, very quiet. We had a picnic there, and the children were having fun playing with animals on the grass and recognizing plants.

It's a beautiful castle. I just went there today. I went with a friend, a Dutchman. It can also be said that I took him to, he has never heard of this place, I found on the Internet, (domestic website) the castle with higher evaluation. He drove me there. When it comes to parking, it's 4 euros (car), which can be parked for one day. It is said that the castle is also a private mansion (used to be), so once crossing the moat (similar to the moat), it is a place where horses were raised (my friend told me), and now it is a plaza for rest and catering. Inside the square is the ticket office. On the left is online ticketing, and on the right is manual ticketing. The queue for tickets is not fast. Three people have been queued for about 10 minutes without an automatic ticket machine. Tickets for adults are 14 euros. If you don't go inside the castle, only visit the garden (the territory outside the castle) is 4 euros. This is the current price, between the Internet saw that say 5 euros, should be a long time ago. After buying the ticket, I went into the garden, which naturally had many flowers and faced the right side of the castle with a stone tablet. I asked my friend what he wrote. He said it was French. From 1912 to 1913, a Frenchman (a woman by name) designed the garden. Fortunately, he could also order French. Strangely, in 1912, the castle of the 17th century was on the Internet. Colleagues say it's possible that the castle is old, but the garden is designed after, and it's reasonable. However, why was it designed by a French individual? Let's leave a question for the moment. The garden is very simple to walk, and there is a labyrinth of entities, but it is not difficult to go out. When you see the fork, you can find a brand with A according to the slogan. That is victory. It is very simple. Then we went into the castle with ticket machines (that is, two-dimensional code sweeping) and supervisors, which seemed reasonable to the Chinese. Unlike Germany, where no one checks tickets, buying tickets has a sense of waste of laughter. When you go in, someone sends you a map and tells you how to visit it. Later, it turns out that the map is very small and meaningless. First of all, a TV show shows the history of the castle, Dutch, with English subtitles, roughly meaning that the castle was built in the 17th century, the decline of the family, the 19th century to the devastation, look at the photos, there are only one tall one short two buildings. At this moment, the heir (with a long name, Baidu bar), married a French daughter-in-law, or a rich daughter-in-law, and then repaired the castle, saying that it was rebuilt, basically new. That's the castle. It's only 100 years old. This is also one of the reasons why many people on the Internet say that the castle is beautiful, because it is closer to modern people's understanding of the castle. In the words of a Dutch friend, this is a villa that looks like a castle. The purpose is to show off his wealth. There are no practical defensive and war functions. But it is very luxurious and modern, a castle with elevators, seating facilities, billiards, a large number of Chinese porcelain and other modern equipment. The castle is very large, but only the first and second floors of the main castle, the kitchen and cold storage before the first floor, the first floor is the lobby, which can dance, play billiards, children's entertainment room, dining room, and dressing room, etc. The second floor is the hostess's bedroom, study, and living room. The order of the rooms is a little unclear.

It took nearly 20 years for Belgium to sell out its tickets, switch to Utrecht, encounter the old castle of Dehar, a typical medieval European castle, towering towers, moats and suspension bridges outside Palace gardens, countless builders, sculptors, gardeners and artists to recreate the family's glory. The masterpiece is like a dream castle in the fairy tale world. The key point is that the bedroom is decorated with blue and white porcelain, the screen of dragon and phoenix is auspicious, and the God of wealth is worshipped. I can only say that the Baron has taste (snickering) (snickering) (snickering).

This is one of the few castles still inhabited. Every September, the owners of the castle come here for a big party. The inside of the castle is not allowed to take photos. It starts from the kitchen on the ground floor. Then it goes upstairs to visit the dining room, the central hall, the knight's hall, the beauty salon, the ballroom, the first room, the second room, the hostess's bedroom, the study, the baron's bedroom and so on. It's probably imprecise to remember. Let's imagine the luxury level inside the castle.
