Chateau de Versailles

Place d'Armes, 78000 Versailles, France

The grandest and most famous chateau in France is located 21km southwest of Paris. Versailles is best known for being the site of the vast royal palace and gardens built by King Louis XIV (France's greatest King ever, also called the Sun King) within what was previously a royal hunting lodge. To avoid queues is to buy the ticket directly from the Château de Versailles website. However, you can get to the Palace easily by train and buy tickets for each attraction once there. This may be the best approach if you want to see something in particular or just want to explore the enormous gardens.

Visit to Chateau de Versailles is worth it. Little out of your way , about 45 minutes by car, but you can take the train. Once you pass the front gate with all the vendors , who are trying to sell you just about anything and are very hard to get rid-off , you find yourself with 3 chices. See it all or see the Chateau or opt for the gardens. In my opinion ( I saw it all ) the gardens are something out of this world PROVIDING you are wisiting in summer months. It may not be so nice and awesome in the winter. The fountains are just pure magic and the "musical show" is beyond description.
