Located in the Île-de-France region, Versailles is most known for the Palace of Versailles ( or the
Château de Versailles) and the Gardens of Versailles, both designated UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Thousands of tourists flock here to catch glimpses of the ornately decorated palace that was also the location of the signing of the Treaty of Versailles that formally brought the First World War to an end.
Versailles is not only full of art and history, well-exhibited in its many art galleries and historic monuments, but is also a breath of fresh air for those looking to escape the chaos of the city. So explore the bicycle tracks and verdant landscapes Versailles has to offer and even take part in some outdoor activities to make your trip more memorable!
