Best viewed in theater mode. We were in Asheville this week & were given 3 free passes to Biltmore Estate which had come from a Hampton Inn guest who had purchased three 2 day passes & something came up that they needed to get home & wouldn't be able to use the tickets for the 2nd day as planned. We decided to take the roof top tour while we were at Biltmore which the nice thing about this tour is that while you are outside up on the roof, you can take pictures and video. One of the neat things we saw on the roof besides the great views was the top of the elevator shaft of the historic Otis elevator! There is still no video or picture taking allowed actually inside the house which part of the roof top tour takes place on the top floor inside the house (which is not part of the regular house tour) which was really neat to see. We even had to climb a small tricky spiral staircase in the observatory room to go to the windows where we exit out onto the roof. This video is a combination of pictures & videos we took while out on the roof. After our tour, we decided to get an early dinner at the Stable Cafe which even though it was near closing time, the staff were very friendly & the food was tasty as always. Bonus footage of a close up view of the exterior elevator shaft windows which if you look carefully, you can see the cables inside :) For more info on the tours offered at Biltmore Estate, check out their website at www.biltmore.com/visit/things-... #TJElevatorfan #BiltmoreEstate #RoofTopTour
