About
Hitre informacije: Ko stopiš v zlate odseve baročnih dvoran, ogledala in kristalni lestenci napolnijo zrak z bliskajočo svetlobo in občutkom teatralnega razkošja. V notranjosti je približno 2.300 sob, vrtovi pa s stotinami fontan ustvarjajo razsežnost, zaradi katere lahko obisk traja ves dan.
Vrhunci: V Galeriji ogledal visi 357 zrcal, ki odbijajo zlato svetlobo iz 17 velikih kandelabrov in ustvarjajo občutek hodnika, polnega premikajočih se luči; ob tem lahko začutiš topel vonj voska iz sveč in odmev svojih korakov po marmorju. Vsako pomlad in poletje prirejajo Grandes Eaux, ko skriti sistemi sprožijo več kot 1.000 vodnih curkov v vrtovih, baročna glasba odmeva skozi alejami in obiskovalce prevzame vonj mokrega kamna in žajblja iz obsežnih parterjev.
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.
