  The sleeping fountains
by Callavetta
 
 

The grounds at Versailles are replete with fountains of all kinds. Unfortunately the first time I visited was a holiday, and although the weather was nice the Chateau itself was closed. We strolled around the grounds, enjoying the beauty. However, on holidays the fountains are turned off! The second time I visited was in December and while we were able to go into the Chateau, the fountains were all wrapped up so that the pipes wouldn't freeze. Someday I hope to see them all running!
