The Journey
Versailles Palace
Step into the glittering heart of French history at Versailles Palace, the extravagant former residence of French royalty. Wander through the State Apartments, where kings and queens once held court, and stand in awe within the iconic Hall of Mirrors, a breathtaking gallery shimmering with light and history.

A visit to Versailles is a journey back in time, a chance to experience the lavish lifestyle and dramatic events that shaped a nation.
Hall of Mirrors
The Hall of Mirrors at Versailles is a dazzling testament to Baroque grandeur, a 73-meter-long gallery adorned with 357 mirrors reflecting the light streaming in from the garden windows. Conceived by Jules Hardouin-Mansart, this iconic hall served not just as a passageway but as a stage for royal celebrations and diplomatic encounters. Imagine the glittering balls and historic signings that took place within these mirrored walls. Today, it offers visitors a breathtaking glimpse into the opulence and power of the French monarchy.

Marvel at the geometric precision of the flowerbeds, the elaborate fountains that come alive with water displays (especially from April to October, when special tickets are needed for access), and the classical statues that adorn the grounds. Stroll along shaded pathways, discover hidden grottos, and admire the Grand Canal, a vast waterway perfect for leisurely boat rides. These gardens are more than just a visual feast; they are a testament to human ingenuity and the pursuit of perfect harmony between nature and art, offering a tranquil escape from the bustle of modern life.
