Hearst Castle is a "bungalow" on 240,000 acres on the coast of California. William Randolph Hearst inherited the land from his father who owned an interest in several of the most important mines in the United States. William Randolph (WR) went on to own some of the most important newspapers in the United States. Hearst hired Julia Morgan, one of the first female architects in the United States, as his designer. The main house exceeds 60,656 sq/ft. The interiors are things Hearst collected, including whole rooms of buildings in Europe. So let's take a brief tour of the history and the "bungalow".
