Sweden - Drottningholms slott

Drottningholm Palace is located just outside the city borders of Stockholm on an island (Lovön ) in Lake Mälaren. The palace is the official home of the Swedish royal family since 1981.

Drottningholm (= Queen’s island) is dating back to the late 16th century, when King Johan III built a palace for his wife. In 1661 the palace was destroyed by a fire. One year later the building on a new palace - as it still is nowadays - began.

Drottningholms slott is surrounded by a French formal garden (PiP 1) and a more natural English style park (PiP 2) with ponds and lawns.

In 1991 Drottningholm Palace was added to UNESCO's World Heritage List.

Interesante muestra de la residencia de la realeza sueca, magníficamente fotografiado. El formato panorámico de la imagen acentúa mas la suntuosidad del lugar. Gran foto. Muy cordiales saludos. Eduardo.

Lovely classical architecture surrounded by a luxurious park. The panoramic shot here is functional to show the whole place in its entirety. A photo to be appreciated better in the larger format. Well captured with a fine light.
