CHâteau de Peirrefonds

In Pierrefonds, France, i came across this absolutely monstrous castle perched atop a hill. It was the most peculiar thing because the smaller size of the town in no way indicated that it housed anything near the size of the Chateau. The second photo is when i first saw it from below, and the first was after my attempt to explore further. I walked around the entire castle gazing up at its gargantuan walls and towers; it sat much taller than any of the surrounding buildings. I was only able to walk around the perimeter of its walls because it was not open to be shown inside, but i could only imagine the wonders that were within. I had and have never seen another castle before, so it was something that excited me greatly; i hope to one day return to see the inside.
