Forest path
Elisabeth takes rides through the King's Forest with her horse Nyriana. Might this be one of the paths she took? (my own photograph from the forest near my home in Sweden)
Summer Alps

Palazzino
Could this be Prince Richard's small palace?
hollow trees
It just looks like a doorway into a magical world
Mountain lake
The mountains surround the kingdom of Vendale. The Alps have been my inspiration for this magical, fairy tale kingdom. (Image courtesy of Elena Ravizza)
Palace
Might Queen Catherine be looking out that window? Is that Lianna's tower room up there?

woodland homes
I always find myself wondering who might be living in a hole like this. In Vendale, elves live in hollow-tree-homes. This is a photo I took in our local forest
