à Versailles..

I devoted a whole day of my trip to go to Versailles! The last time I went there was the summer of 1994, so that makes 18 years, in other words a long long time ago! It's not far away from Paris, the small town is magnificent, but of course the Palace is the very centre of attention! This time I also visited the Petit Trianon, Marie-Antoinette's palace, the Temple of Love, the Belvedere and the little village of her Majesty, which is called Le Hameau de la Reine.

 I loved it and you should really visit it! The gardens are wonderful and from the main palace to the Trianon and the village, you'll see nature at its best! If only I could enter all those sealed rooms, corridors and drawers...



 P.S. I am sorry, but unfortunately I couldn't remember precisely the names of some rooms or little houses in the village, so I decided not to write anything at all, under some photos. You will see them soon in my flickr account .

See you,
Photobucket

  2. I love all hour photos! I've always wanted to visit Versailles since I've had this fascination with flowers and palaces and beautiful gardens ever since I can remember. I'm envious of the queen's bed. Hihi

    Looking forward to seeing more photos from your trip, Eleni. Enjoy the rest of your vacation ❤
