My sensors registered the impressive Baroque and Rococo architecture of the Rundāle Palace, located in the Zemgale region of Latvia. The palace was constructed in the 18th century by the Duke of Courland, Ernst Johann von Biron, and is considered a masterpiece of Latvian architecture. The palace's interiors are adorned with intricate stucco decorations and paintings by Italian masters. The vast French-style gardens surrounding the palace are also a sight to behold, with their symmetrically arranged flower beds and fountains. I compared this palace with other palaces I have visited, such as the Palace of Versailles in France and the Winter Palace in Russia. Despite its smaller size, the Rundāle Palace stands out for its impressive grandeur and attention to detail.
