The Royal Opera (L'Opera Royal)

Reviewed By theredhat

Amazing architecture, incredibly opulent.I am so glad that I visited. The entrance to the building is a bit confusing, you have to go all the way around the building before it is evident where to enter. It really is a site to put on your list. However, the staff is outrageously RUDE , unhelpful and could care less if you see the building or not.

The Trianons & The Hamlet

Reviewed By chrislN392IZ - Sumter, United States

The Grande Trianon was a stunning “little” house that is worth visiting while at the Palace of Versailles. You can walk there, rent a golf cart, rent a Segway, even run there if you choose. This place has a very homey feel, like you could picture yourself sitting there enjoying a book and some coffee. Well worth the visit.

Chateau de St-Germain

Reviewed By LIKAYLA - Topanga, United States

We made an unplanned trip to Saint-Germain as my son's best friends happened to be in Paris for the World Cup finals. Their father was born and raised in Saint-Germain, so we spent the day there at his parent's home, after vising Versailles in the morning. It's a lovely town outside of Paris and is the birthplace of Louis XIV! It's built on a hill with beautiful views down toward Paris. If you're looking to get out of the city and experiencing a bit of the country, this is a great destination that's easily accessible by RER (the metro that travels outside of Paris City Centre).

Temple of Love

Reviewed By gorobingo - Split, Croatia

If you purchase the ticket to visit le Petit Trianon and Marie Antoinette's quarters (12 eruos), you will have access to the beautiful park and trails that surround it. This is where you find this well preserved and peaceful temple.

Grand Canal

Reviewed By 750dimitrisl - Sydney, Australia

The Grand Canal is a magnificent part of the Versailles Palace. The sheer size of it and the volumes of water needed to make it work are just mind boggling. A great place to walk around.

A grand architecture commensurate with the palace grandeur, this chapel looks every bit of the royal usage at one point of time.
