  The Queens Cottage
by Goner
 
 

Favorite thing: The Small Trianon is a whole other section - I guess the poorer section of the Versaille complex, with just a few somewhat less dazzling buildings including The Queen's Cottage. Here you will also find a some lovely gardens in a more natural setting.


Le hameau de Marie-Antoinette, a play-village and farm built in 1783 for Louis XVI's queen to indulge the fashionable Rousseau-inspired fantasy of returning to the natural life.
