15 Of The BIGGEST Palaces On Earth

[@edwinvdv7030]

The "Swedish" palace is an AI phantasy. It s Chambord (France) sized up and embellished.

[@gaspikefan]

I was wondering.... Not only did it not look like the architecture found in other Swedish palaces, but there was no reference to it online to be found (I stopped the video to search). Thanks for pointing that out!

[@helenaconstantine]

It seems to have a swimming pool and a tower with screened in porches--that just screams out 16th century.

[@kennethalpvik7255]

Well, you should book a trip to Stockholm and go on a tour to Drottningholm Castle… Then you would realize that it very much exist 😇. (And yes, I believe it was inspired by the French Chambord castle when built)

[@lars-gunnarjarl5296]

I have lived in Sweden all my life and I can confirm that the palace at 11:42 does not exist in Sweden. However the Swedish palace at 5:25, Drottningholm, does exist to 100% in reality.

@@hubertusvenator5838 I understand that comprehending the situation requires intelligence. The anthem "God Save the King" never fails to amaze me whenever I hear it. "Grand Dieu sauve le Roi," which was derived from a poem by the Duchess de Brinon and harmonized by Lully in 1686, commemorated the triumphant surgical procedure on Louis XIV's fistula. It is believed that Handel embraced this anthem after experiencing its performance at Versailles.

The Palacio Real Madrid is the largest European palace by number of rooms, closely followed by Caserta, Schoenbrunn and Versailles. The Forbidden City is the overall largest palace in the world. Honorable mentions go to the Topkapi Palace in Istanbul (which is just a shittier Ottoman rendition of the Sacred Palace of Constantinopolis) and the three large palaces of the Romanov dynasty of Imperial Russia - Winter Palace, Ekaterinhof and Peterhof Palace.

[@XavierLeFrancais]

for Chambord: Leonardo da Vinci DID design the central helicoïdal stairs. That's not a belief, it's a fact: you can find drawings of da Vinci of that stair and of the global shape of the castle/palace.

Bucharest has no spectacular palace. Maybe you were thinking of Ceausescu's big building, but that building is no palace per se. It's just a kitsch, a monstrosity inspired by some North-Korean architecture mixed with Ceausescu's ideas. Maybe one day, after some renovation involving an architect with good skills and taste.....

So the Forbidden City has a thousand buildings and approx a thousand rooms... one room per building. Try harder, you lose credibility with dialogue like that.

[@XavierLeFrancais]

the forbidden city claims to have 9999 rooms (10000 is only for the God's in the legend). An investigation in the 1970's said it has 8700 rooms...still formidable and unmachted. Even Versaille with 2400 rooms isn't as big. but the gardens of the forbidden city, even if they are huge (50ha) is smaller than the gardens of Versaille (800ha and 8000ha for the entire domain). But one is in the middle of the city, the other in the landscape....Two formidable masterpieces.
