Explore the different rooms, each gorgeous and bearing the name of Greek gods. The guide will lead you through the palace to the majestic Hall of Mirrors, the most impressive room in the palace.

Take a leisurely walk through the gardens with vibrant flowers and fountains and admire the work of André le Nôtre, an unparalleled landscape architect. Visit the Grand Trianon, a getaway from the splendors of the Court and the Petit Trianon built by Louis XV for his favorite Madame de Pompadour.
