Imagine stepping into a garden where power, politics, and artistry collide. A place where kings and queens once walked, where war and diplomacy shaped the very landscape, and where a hidden tunnel of green shielded a queen from he relentless summer sun. This is Het Loo, the Dutch palace of William of Orange and Queen Mary, a Baroque masterpiece built in an era when gardens were not just for pleasure but for power.

Diarmuid Gavin tells us the story of these wonderful gardens and palace.
