| Page Views: 1,131 Last Visit to Versailles: January, 2003 | What a place! by shdw100 - last update: Aug 21, 2003 |
My wife and I went to Versailles, which is a short train ride outside of Paris, about 30 minutes. It was winter, so we were fortunate to have seen a different view of what the palace and gardens were like. Even though it wasn't as pretty as say spring, it was still worth the visit. If you do go, do not go on a Monday, like we did. It was closed :-( So, we decided to walk around the palace then went to the Grand Trianon where King Louis XIV spent his time away from Versailles |

Ok, I didn't know about the bit about King Louis dying in that bed chamber! I only knew that his body was kept for 8 days in a certain rm. | Laura_Mexico Fri Oct 22, 2004 19:26 UTC
Beautiful picture of the chamber.... but then why did you take the pic if you weren't supposed to??? Highly recommendable place if you want to spend a good $$$.... | heywinks Sun Oct 17, 2004 09:59 UTC
