Hearst Castle was built by millionaire William Randolph Hearst who was the grandfather of Patty Hearst, if you remember all that drama from the 70s/80s.  We had visited the castle years ago, but with being so close to it again we decided to take another one of the many different tours available.  The castle sits way up high on a beautiful expanse of high coastal hills overlooking the Pacific Ocean on a more remote part of coastal highway 101 near San Simeon, California.   If you're ever in the area and like to tour these types of historical and famous places, it should be a must see.  Come and join us as we take a short tour through some of the architectural highlights of the castle.
