The gardens of Blenheim Palace, with the 2nd largest natural maze in the world

These are the gardens of Blenheim Palace. They are well kept, and can be divided into 4 parts. 1st is the classical part, well cut, where it was to walk, to have tea in the shade of a tree. The palace has belonged to, since it was constructed over 300 years ago, the same family, the Duke of Marborough, the family of Winston Churchill. On the other hand you have the maze for kids. It is the 2nd biggest natural maze in the world, and one of the few that represent a true image. Then there is a fun place for children called adventure or something like that, but as it was snowing, we could not go inside.

The last part is the greenhouse, which has a collection of butterflies in a tropical greenhouse. The admission is included to Blenheim Palace, or just for the gardens they give you a cheaper price.

lovely gardens

Excellent

These are the gardens of Blenheim...

Ce sont les jardins de loisir du palais...

Ce sont les jardins de loisir du palais de Blenheim. Ils sont très bien entretenus, et on peut les diviser en quatre parties. Premièrement, il y a une partie plus classique du jardin, avec des haies bien taillées, où on allait se promener, ou prendre le thé a l’ombre des ormes centenaires. Le palais appartient depuis sa construction il y a 300 ans a la même famille, les Marlborough, dont est issu Winston Churchill. Ensuite de l’autre coté se trouve le labyrinthe, pour les enfants. C’est le second labyrinthe naturel au monde par la taille, et l’un des rares qui représente un vrai dessin. Il y a aussi un endroit de jeux plus modernes pour les enfants qui s’appelle adventure ou quelque chose comme ca, mais comme il avait trop neigé, c’était fermé. La dernière partie est celle des serres, qui contiennent une grande collection de papillons, dans une serre tropicale. L’entrée est comprise dans celle du palais, ou alors pour seulement voir les jardins il y a un billet un peu moins cher.
These are the gardens of Blenheim Palace leisure. They are very well maintained and can be divided into four parts. First, there is a classic part of the garden, with well-trimmed hedges, where we went for a walk, or take tea in the shade of elm trees. The palace belongs since it was built 300 years ago in the same family, Marlborough, which comes from Winston Churchill. Then the other side is the maze for children. This is the second natural labyrinth in the world in size, and one of the few that is a real drawing. There is also a more modern place for children called adventure or something like that game, but as it was too snowed, it was closed. The last part is the greenhouses, which contain a large collection of butterflies in a tropical greenhouse. Admission is included in the palace, or so to only see the gardens there is a less expensive ticket.
