Architectural Melange

 

Wow. Now that is a fantastic castle or palace. But which one?

The best I can work out, this may be the Pena Palace before refurbishment. That's in Sintra, Portugal folks.

Not the Nun's Exercise Yard at the St Blodwynn's Cathedral

 

It seems that I have been wrongly informed. This is not the secret Not the Nun's Exercise Yard at the St Blodwynn's Cathedral atop Snowdon.

It is, in fact, the Brunnenhof (Fountain Courtyard), one of the ten courtyards at Munich Residenz, the former royal palace of the Wittelsbach monarchs of Bavaria.

Albeit, with the famous fountains boarded over due to an outbreak of the Lurghi.
