I choose this picture because it’s a castle. My favorite time period is the Middle Ages and castles were quite popular then. I’ve always wondered what it would be like to live in a castle. I always imagine that it would be full of secret passages and rooms. I would love having the whole place to myself. Castles were the best line of defense for any king/warlord, except for possibly a lake or a large desert. Castles, while easy to siege (a siege is where the enemy surrounds the castle and doesn’t let anything in or out ) could hold out for a long time. Other then that the only threat to castles are battering rams and siege ladders both of which could be easily repelled.
