Hearst Castle

Hearst Castle is a park on the central California coast and a National Historical Landmark. It was designed by Julia Morgan for William Randolph Hearst from 1919 to 1947. In 1957, the owner donated the fortune(财产)to the state of California. Since that time it has been a state historic park where its large collection of art are open for public tours. Though it's far from any city centre, the park attracts about one million visitors every year.

Guided Tours

Tour 1 is recommended for first-time visitors. It now includes the movie, Hearst Castle: Building the Drearn.

Tour 2 gives visitors a closer look at the main house's upper floors, Mr Hearst′s personal suite, the libraries, and the kitchen.

Tour 3 looks at the Castle's North Wing, guest rooms and guest house Casa del Monte.

Tour 4 includes the beautiful gardens at grounds, the largest guest house, the wine basement, and the Hidden Terrace.

The evening tour is a special tour that allows visitors to experience the castle at night as one of the Hearst's own visitors might have.
