Paris - Versailles

This is the place that Ebb Tide (thanks again) told me not to miss out when visiting Paris. Some of my choirmates went there around afternoon, we actually don’t know how to get there. We just depend on the map that we had on our hands and rode a bus then a train. We thought that we were lost because it was a long travel. Later we know that the place is outside Paris and the last station is Versailles.

Before entering the place we paid an entrance fee I forgot how much within the station then proceed a long walk to reach the palace.

All I can say is “WOW and more WOWS” until now. The area is very wide that we failed to wander for a half day. The gardens were so lovely, though I haven’t seen it all.

For those who are planning to visit Paris don’t miss Versailles on your list.

Versailles - a palace built in the 17th century for Louis XIV southwest of Paris near the city of Versailles .

The Château de Versailles — often called the Palace of Versailles, or simply Versailles — is a royal château, outside the gates of which the village of Versailles, France, has grown to become a full-fledged city.

    Hi Kneeko! Lately, I have lots of problems opening your blog. What a surprise to see my name here! Maraming Salamat! I am happy you remembered Versailles from my pst blog. I enjoyed looking at your photos. Bring back the good memories. I had been to Versailles twice and never got tired of it. I didn’t see photos inside. I hope you watch the DVD movie (” Marie Antoinette”). This movie came out last year. Many of the scenes where shot inside the palace. This movie will give you many spectacular sights which you might have missed.

    I wrote in my past blog, that Versailles is outside Paris, about an hour away. I am glad you found it by taking the metro system.
    For those who wanted to see an artistic point of view of Versailles, they can visit my art blog. I posted “Artistic Palace of Versailles” (April 27,2007). http://forever-art.blogspot.com/
