    丘吉尔庄园

    Easter Sunday,隔壁人家的庆祝晚会在凌晨4点还没结束!!

    起床整理照片,去了丘吉尔庄园Blenheim Palace,号称英国最漂亮的私人庄园。4天的假期,我们偏偏挑了个下雪下冰雹的天气,果然又中奖。

    上帝让冬天和夏天待在了一起,生出了英国这种鬼天气,为纪念再次出游时被冻得半死,照片处理成黑白的。

          Blenheim Palace并不是那个首相丘吉尔的,大约300年前,英国女王安妮(1665-1714)将牛津附近数百公顷的皇家猎场赐予了约翰·丘吉尔(马尔伯勒公爵一世)。这里跟丘吉尔直接相关的,只有两处地方。开火车的慈祥老爷爷告诉我们,丘吉尔出生“完全是个意外”,因为他母亲骑马了,使得预产期提前,不得不在庄园里生产——而闻名遐迩的“丘吉尔诞生地”,就是这间宫殿里一间不足二十平米的小房间,原来是存放衣帽的女王更衣室。

           还有一个,就是湖边植物园里一座精致典雅的小神庙(Temple of Diana),传说丘吉尔趁在那里避雨的时候向年轻美丽的克莱门蒂娜·霍齐尔(1885-1977)求婚的。不过因为天气,我们只走到湖边就决定打道回府了。

    宫殿前门,门前是长长的甬道,门内能看到宫殿一隅。带有族徽的金色大门,让人觉得很有历史感。

    这座庄园目前仍然属于邱吉尔家族,贝尼尼(1598-1680,著名意大利雕塑家)的水神喷泉,詹姆斯爵士(1675- 1734,英国著名画家)的天顶画,范布勒爵士(1664-1726,英国建筑大师)的巨大几何形花坛,前朝赏赐的昂贵的波斯地毯及奢侈的银质和瓷器餐具……在那里慢慢散步,可以感受仍然保持着的私密家园氛围。

    拱门之外,是一片开阔的草坪和一方湛蓝天空。树立布Blenheim战役纪念碑的周围,放养着上百头绵羊。远远看到一扇写着“保持关闭”的门就那么处在那里,而没有发现周围细细的围场铁丝时,觉得那门也是个艺术品……

    这样的水景,总让人感到静谧。

    下雪的时候,其实还是蛮好玩的。

    呵呵,有很多地方我们都没走到,下次啦。
    某小孩在回来的路上说:“如果上天再给我一次机会,我会坚定地说三个字---我不去!”
