Versaille ~Gardens & Palace
Discover the estate
The Palace of Versailles, whose origins date back to the seventeenth century, was successively a hunting lodge, a ​seat of power and​,​ from the nineteenth century​,​ a museum. With the gardens and the ​​Palaces of Trianon, the park of the Château de Versailles spreads over 800 hectares.
The Hall of Mirrors
The most famous room in the Palace, was built to replace a large terrace designed by the architect Louis Le Vau, which opened onto the garden.

FOUNTAINS
Water features of all kinds are an important part of French gardens, even more so than plant designs and groves. At Versailles, they include waterfalls in some of the groves, spurts of water in the fountains, and the calm surface of the water reflecting the sky and sun in the Water Parterre or the Grand Canal.

TESTIMONIALS
"Traveling with Gloria is always an inspiring and magnificent journey.
She is a truly gifted retreat leader. Her passion for travel and for
guiding and coaching people shine through like a brilliant sun in all
that she does. Unique, beautiful places that are out of the way and
not commonly visited is one of the signature pieces of any retreat or
travel journey, along with deeply meaningful, spiritual,
energetic havens of peace and power. Gloria's retreats are deep
healing for body, mind and soul, inspiring creativity, igniting
passion and awakening purpose in those who attend. I have traveled
with Gloria many times now, and each time is better than the last." ~CLT
