The website: Visiting the Palace of Versailles: discover the palace of Versailles. (It's closed for unusually high traffic at the moment, but one can hope they get that fixed soon.)

On YouTube.uk there is a five part series about Versailles. This visually stunning series details its history, art, architecture, the people, and much more.

Enjoy

I absolutely loved Versailles and the Petit Trianon,when I first visited Paris!
What I liked most is the rooms with the different colors,especially the red room.
I won't talk about the gardens...magnificent!!

i have seen versailles and its an amazing palace, the king and queens rooms hall of mirrors everything is so beautiful. but there is a hint of urine in the air and i found out that a lot of the servants would use the corners of the palace rooms to potty-over time urine had soaked into the plaster walls thus the faint smell of urine

As this thread is about the Palace of Versailles, the lengthy discussion of CP Victoria's dress has been removed.

This palace is one of the most visited places in France because of its architecture, its fantastic gardens and also because of its history.
