A bit like the UK in 2023, there was obviously a housing crisis in 17th century Paris. So Louis XIV decided to build his own pad. Didn't make a bad job of it, did he? And........ It's huge.
Of course, we only got to see a tiny bit of it, but that was enough to get the general idea.
I have to be honest, as beautiful as the exterior and gardens are, inside is just too over the top, and it's no wonder that the ordinary Frenchman decided that enough was enough in 1789. Off with their heads!
Definitely worth seeing, though.Les mer
