VERSAILLES
 

The Château and the gardens of Versailles count among the most prestigious monuments of the world's artistic heritage, a finest and most complete achievement of 17th century French art and the sumptuous theatre of history from Louis XIV to Louis XVI.

   

Versailles was the creation of one of French history's main figures, King Louis XIV, who reigned from 1661 to 1715. The royal dream house that many European Kings envied and tried to duplicate exemplified the splendid image of the Sun King.

   

Guided tour of the State Apartments, the Hall of Mirrors and the 250-acre gardens designed by André Lenôtre.

   

Visit on week-ends in summer to see the spectacular fountains in action.
