VISIT THE CHATEAU DE VERSAILLES
Enjoy the essentials of the Versailles castle at your own pace:
THE GARDENS OF VERSAILLES
Get in the boots of ancient French royalty and enjoy the magnificent French gardens designed by Le Nôtre, where nature is tamed, flowerbeds are geometric and the aisles are structured. The fountain pools and terraces obey the laws of optical illusion, so the Grand Canal seems close when standing at the foot of the castle when its actually further away.
FOUNTAINS SHOW AND MUSICAL GARDENS ( included in your price )
From April to October, the fountains come to life and you can watch their fabulous spectacle of the great waters dancing to the inspiring music of baroque era. The "Grandes Eaux de Versailles" show takes place on Saturdays and Sundays, the "Jardins Musicaux de Versailles" takes place from Tuesday to Friday.
VERSAILLES HISTORY...
When the Versailles Palace was built, the city of Versailles was a country village; today it is a suburb, some twenty kilometers southwest of Paris. The court of Versailles was the center of political power in France from 1682, when Louis XIV moved from Paris, until the royal family was forced to return to the capital in October 1789 after the beginning of the French Revolution. Versailles is therefore famous not only as a building, but as a symbol of the system of absolute monarchy of the "Ancient Régime" in France.
