Bucket List Worthy Hot off the Press
Many of us have dreamt of living like royalty when watching Disney movies or gawking at photos of Will and Kate’s wedding, but we never thought those dreams were within reach. Lucky for us — a number of picturesque castles throughout the world offer extensive tours, so we can all stop looking for prince charming and still get an idea of what living like royalty feels like. From the tiny corners of Europe to all areas of the United Kingdom, these castles should be on every bucket list.
