This past week, I was fortunate enough to be able to tour Biltmore Estate, the previous home of the Vanderbilt family. It is one of the largest residential complexes in the United States, with many bedrooms, banquet halls, living rooms, and much much more. I went on the trip with my family and the estate has something for everyone, including a candy store, bookstore, and greenhouse.

| Leather tooled walls of the breakfast room. |

| Also on display at the manor, were intricate and beautiful reproductions of the clothing of the Vanderbilt family and their guests. This collection was created by a costume design company in England. The reproductions were based on photos of the Vanderbilt family, as clothing is very delicate and wouldn't have survived. |
This is super dope!!
