DROTTNINGHOLM 



of English Mortlake tapestries. The park is 

 all in the French style, but some of the very 

 fine bronze statues were taken as loot from 

 Prague in the Thirty Years War. If you 

 penetrate farther into the park you find a 

 quaint little Chinese palace which was erected 

 by King Adolf Fredrik as a birthday surprise 

 for his queen, Louise Ulrika. Wherever you 

 go at Drottningholm you feel the atmosphere . 

 of old times ; it is as if the thoughts, joys, 

 and tears of those who lived there in days gone 

 by still linger, and add a charm that nothing 

 else could give.
