ENGLAND??NO ITALY!!
I must say that the first time I saw it, I really thought I was in England, but we are in San Polo di Piave in Italy, in the province of Treviso, and it is a very special castle surrounded by a large park with a navigable lake, in fact, there are small boats as well as beautiful bicycles to tour the park.
The castle is mainly used for events and weddings, but we also organise many guided tours, with tastings at the fabulous wine cellar located a few metres from the castle.
I made a little short that I uploaded to my YouTube channel to show me this wonder in less than 60 seconds!

A VERY SPECIAL STORY
Around the year 1000, the Patriarch of Aquilea had the first castle built in order to assert his dominion over the town of San Polo. It then passed under the Venetian Republic, which donated it to its valiant captains and then to various noble families of the time, up to the Papadopoli family, These wealthy merchants from the island of Corfu had moved to Venice and in 1820 became the richest and most influential people of the time in the lagoon city. Thanks to this family, the castle was enlarged but then, for economic reasons, in 1920 it was sold to Giovanni Giol, who bought the entire complex and restored it to its full splendour, after the serious damage it unfortunately suffered during the First World War.
