This evening we visited "Hearst Castle".
Situated near the unbelievable highway 1, the media mogul "William Randoolph Hearst" fulfilled one of his dreams in 1919:
On the top of a mountain
he build a luxury castle with everything the world offered in this time.
Indoor Pool
tennis court
the pompous main building
cinema
extravagant interior accessories:
The two most impressiv things:
The outdoor pool and the landscape
We asked our guide "who is allowed to use this pool". And the answer is unbelievable: Nobody, except the employee of Hearst Castle, but only two hours each year ... without anyexception.
The rigor of this regulation is only outbid by the regulation for the indoor pool. Nobody is allowed to swim, except you are an employee and it's your last day of work.
Only then you are allowed to jump one time from the bridge / diving board into the pool.
