Arrive at opening on weekdays or late afternoon to avoid the largest tour groups, spring and early autumn offer pleasant weather and active fountains.

Buy the Passport ticket for access to the Palace, Trianons and gardens, and use the Paris Museum Pass to skip lines; individual tickets are typically around €20-30 depending on options.

About
クイックファクト: 豪華な鏡の間を歩くと、眩い金箔と並んだ鏡面が反射して王侯たちの舞踏会の喧騒が今も蘇るように感じられる。広大な庭園は精巧な幾何学模様の花壇や噴水ショーが点在し、散策すれば当時の権力と贅沢さが体感できる。
ハイライト: 鏡の間には357枚の鏡が並び、夕方の光が金箔の装飾に反射して廊下全体が金色の川のように輝く様子は驚くほど映画的だ。かつて王の「ル・ルヴェ」と呼ばれる朝の礼式では300人近い廷臣が見守る中で王の衣服が着せられ、今でも床や天井に残る蝋の染みや香の匂いが当時の気配を伝える。
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable, flat shoes; palace floors and garden paths mean lots of walking.
- Head straight to the Hall of Mirrors early for photos before crowds arrive, and avoid using flash.
- Start with the Grand Trianon and Marie Antoinette estate to escape the main palace crush.
- On Musical Fountain or Grandes Eaux days position yourself by the Grand Canal for the best fountain views, otherwise use side paths for quieter garden photos.
