It was love at the first sight. I always try to stop for a moment when we pass this place. It's located on the opposite of the station Driebergen-Zeist. Beerschoten-Willinkshof is a landscaped park at Hoofdstraat 21. The neoclassical garden temple ( folly ) stands on a slight elevation and offers a view of the overtuin with a winding pond at the botom. The design of the folly was inspired by the "Temple de l'Amour" at Marie Antoinette's Trianon Palace in Versailles. It is cute and so romantic..... See more..
