This site is a definite must see! Designed by architects Louis le Vau and Jules Hardouin in 1668 on what once was a small hunting site for King Louis XIV’s father, it now stands as the largest palace in Europe. The impressive, detail, design and overall magnificence of the palace is breathtaking. The interior, designed by painter Charles Le Brun, is equally impressive with the Royal Apartments and the Hall of Mirrors. Be sure to also check out the Petit Trianon (1762) and the Grand Trianon (1687) also located in the park. Expect to spend a whole day here with countless sites to see and plenty of shopping and dining in the area. Admission: Château EUR7, Grand Trianon and Petit Trianon EUR5.
