Versailles is one of the most beautifully extravagant chateaus in the world. The original building was a hunting lodge built during King Louis XIII’s reign. Andre Le Netre transformed the muddy marshland into parterres, terraces, lush groves and a spectacular series of fountains. The inspiration for Versailles came from King Louis XIV. He was fascinated by the Vaux-Le-Vicomte—the impressive residence of his finance minister Nicolas Fouquet. Versailles is the place where the famous Treaty of Versailles was signed in 1919. The famous Hall of Mirrors—a 73-metre (240-foot) gallery—overlooks the garden. It hangs with 357 mirrors and is Versailles’ crown jewel.
