Hampton Court is the palace that King Henry VIII lived in during his entire reign as king in the Age of Reformation. The exterior aspect of the palace was beautiful. The interior just made it evident that it was a man’s palace with little influence from a woman. Wooden paneled walls, animal horns, and military artillery were on the walls of the palace as décor. I thought that the interior wasn’t as luxurious as the other monarchial palaces in England and it had a sense of darkness to it. I may have a bias against the palace because it was King Henry the VIII. He seemed to be a man of no true, moral character.
The best part of Hampton Court was the Privy Gardens. They had more small flowers, bushes, trees, and shrubs in comparison to other gardens making it look much more detailed. The designs that were imprinted into the grass with sand were spectacular, not to mention we were once again blessed with great weather.
