Gates of Versailles - Versailles, France - Philatelic Photographs on Waymarking.com

"The Palace of Versailles and the awesome gardens and building surrounding this palace are well worth a daytrip visit. The Château de Versailles was the royal palace outside the gates of the village of Versailles, suburb of Paris.

The Palace was the historical and official residence of the French Kings, from 1682 when King Louis XIV decided to move from Paris until the royal family was forced to return in 1789.

This royal palace became the home of the French nobility and was the location of the royal court under the Ancien Régime. It was initially a hunting lodge which was expanded in rounds by Louis XIV. He was supposed to use the lodge for his amorous trysts with the lovely Louise de la Valliere. "
