Gold. If I described the Chateau de Versailles in one word, it would have to be gold. It was everywhere. As you walk up to the palace you know you are going back in time. There is an amazing entrance that takes your breath away. I kept thinking “I can’t believe this was someone’s home”; Ok, I know it was the royal family of the day, but I had never seen anything close to this in size or beauty. The audio guide tours help to put you back in the time of the kings, queens, princes and princesses. It is a great privilige to see the palace, which is only a small portion, if you can believe it, of the grounds. I then took a walk to the gardens, the grand canal and the petit canal. It was so calming and made me feel connected to nature. It seems to me these kings and queens had a true love of beauty and nature.
Since it was so chilly I decided to skip the Grand Trianon and Petit Trianon which contain several gardens and a lake. If I ever have the chance to return I would love to see the Grand and Petit Trianons in full bloom.
Hall of Mirrors in the Chateau Versailles:
The hall ofMirrors looks fancy. Nanna said hi and my mom has to pick you up when you get back.Talk to you later.
i went o Paris three weeks ago and we visited Versailles.it was beautiful but one thing i hated was the weird modern art displayed in the middle of every room. it was a great experience and the grounds were unbelievable.
