We arrived back in France and on Lucinda’s advise headed to The Palace of Versailles, famous for being Marie Antoinette former abode.
The Palace is truly spectacular. The French royalty certainly spared no expense in ensuring that they were comfortable. Every feature of the palace – from the grandest hallways through to the most seemingly insignificant door handles and everything in between – is handcrafted in the most meticulous detail. Every room left us standing with our mouths gaping, overwhelmed at the incredible beauty, creativity and thought that went into making such an incredibly opulent environment.
As if the palace wasn’t enough, the gardens we equally beautiful. Again, no expense was spared in crafting detailed outdoor ‘drawing rooms’ featuring stone-carved water fountains and statues of philosophers and goddesses. Even standing there, it is hard to imagine that the human mind could create something so very beautiful.
