Biltmore faces

The Biltmore Mansion is covered in stone faces. Almost every corner has a little head sticking out, some clothed in finery others in feathers or fur or even scales. No photos allowed inside the mansion but the grounds are open season. We had a great time exploring the largest private residence in the country. The house is open for you to tour at your own pace and we spent hours studying the finer points. Now where’s my indoor swimming pool and servants galore? I guess I’ll have to settle for photos.
