I noticed that beds seem to be very small compared to what we have today. Were they smaller in height? Or do they just prefer to curl up in bed?
A statue gilded in gold created just to hold a chandelier. Talk about lavish.
A hallway full of animals' antlers. Try to visualize. Many horses. A pack of hunters. A king surrounded by his court. Ladies of royal blood garbed in extravagant clothes, having tea in the garden while waiting for their husbands and paramours to come from the long hunt. An excitement-filled hunt in a forest filled with game. Everyone ready for the kill.
Take some time to look up the ceilings and see the detailed designs. See artworks every time you look around. No wonder they need large spaces for gardens. They were necessary to remain sane.
Walk through another spacious hallway and imagine you pass through this way each day. Hmmm... it is not only the garden that you need strength to walk, even inside your house.
Want to see a particular country in the world? Check out their "little globe."
Surround yourself with pictures of your ancestors. 
A reminder of their past exploits.
With stained glass windows inside the castle, it may seem like you are in a church.
Ready to go to war? Get into an armor. I've always thought that a battle with swords is much better than guns and canons. In a certain perspective, this kind of fight is more equal ... a fight that entails skill of prowess and mind.
Just a short glimpse into their lives ...
