Wandering through the grandest of Newport’s “summer cottages”—The Breakers—felt like stepping into a living time capsule of the Gilded Age. Built between 1893 and 1895 by industrial titan Cornelius Vanderbilt II, this Italian Renaissance-style palace was designed by the legendary Richard Morris Hunt in a Neo-Italian Renaissance style—and it’s beyond opulent. Think Baccarat crystal chandeliers, platinum-leaf wall reliefs, Italian mosaics, and an amazing 50-foot-high Great Hall that leaves you breathless.

This isn’t just a mansion—it’s a monument to the ambition and artistry of the Gilded Age and a star setting in shows like The Gilded Age. Every corner echoes opulence and stories of a bygone era. If castles by the sea are your vibe, consider this your day well spent.
