Hearst Castle is a palatial(宫殿式) park on the central California coast and a National Historic Landmark. It was designed by architect Julia Morgan for William Randolph Hearst from 1919 until 1947. In 1957, the Hearst Corporation donated the fortune to the state of California. Since that time it has been maintained as a state historic park where the estate and its considerable collection of art and antiques are open for public tours. In spite of its location far from any urban center, the site attracts roughly one million visitors every year.

l Tour Four features the impressive gardens and grounds, the largest guesthouse, the wine basement, and the Hidden Terrace.
l The evening tour is a special tour that allows visitors to experience the Castle at night as one of the Hearst's own visitors might have.
