blenheim palace

Blenheim Palace is the only non-royal country house in England to hold the title of palace. The monumental country house is located in Woodstock, Oxfordshire, England and its main residence of the dukes of Marlborough.

Several films have been shot at this location, including Bollywood films. Apart from James Bond, Avengers & Harry Potter films, Indian films like SRK’s ‘Fan’ (palace shown during the wedding) and K3G ‘Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham’ (song Deewana hai dekho) have been filmed at this location.


Watch: Deewana Hai Dekho Song, Kareena Kapoor & Hrithik Roshan from K3G. You can see Blenheim Palace in the background.

The sprawling Blenheim Palace is also home to an abundance of wildlife, historical monuments, ancient woodland and rural activity (the surround area is spread over 12500 acres).

The palace is grand, beautiful; offers a nice interactive history of the dynasty, and also has a moving tribute to Sir Winston Churchill.

Then there are some lovely grounds. You can take a mini train ride to the pleasure gardens. Those fond of butterflies can checkout the butterfly house where several of these beautiful insects fly around you.

Overall, great fun for families and kids.
