Versailles

by BenFromParis - last update: Sep 11, 2002

Where is it ?

If you have time, go in versailles. It's not very far from Paris (20 minutes by tain). You'll see one of the biggest castle in the world (perhaps the biggest). This is a very important place of our history.
The "galerie des glaces" in the castle.
The "orangerie" on the left of the castle and the lake behind is named: "la pièce d'eau des suisses"
Go for a walk in the park of the castle. It's very nice and quiet.

Off the beaten path...

Versailles is a very nice city. If you go in Versailles, go for a walk around the market place ("place du vieux marché"). You'll discover nice streets and some good restaurants.

La taverne de maitre Kanter :

Restaurant

On the right of the castle.

 I've been to Connolly's Corner, too! My name is Connolly & they gave me a free beer because of it (had to show them my passport to prove it - LOL). :>) The d'Orsay is THE best Impressionist museum in the world followed by the Art Institute in Chicago!
