Versailles - Palace of the Sun King

Description:

“I am leaving, but the state will live forever.” – Louis XIV
There is probably not a single person in the world who does not have the slightest idea of the history of France, even if he has never been there! And it is no secret that thanks to countless films and novels, the most famous king of France has always been, is and will be exactly Louis XIV, who lived, perhaps, the longest life of all French offspring (77 years) and reigned the longest of all, that even the throne is transferred not even to his grandson, but great-grandson Louis XV! A tour of Versailles from Paris is a trip to the era of the Sun King - to the world of Louis XIV. One of the most enduring legends about Louis is that he kept his twin brother in an iron mask for years to escape his claim to the throne. There are many different legends, Marlesonian ballets, musketeer fights and love adventures, with which the era of Louis XIV is inextricably linked in our memory. I invite you to go on a fascinating journey into the world of this, in truth, powerful monarch "Sun King", which will open a tour to Versailles from Paris!
