Stunning room but you don’t get the effect as your crowded in all you can see is people’s heads. They pack in far too many people

This is one of the largest halls of the Castle (Chateau) of Versailles.
Was used by the king to impress any visitor.
it has 2 identical rooms at the ends with 220 feet of mirrors in between.
must visit within the castle.

If you like opulence, wealth, extravagance beyond imagination this is the place to go. However, be prepared to view it all with hordes of other tourists. The gardens are on a gigantic scale and to walk around everything is almost impossible. The Hall of Mirrors is fantastic.....what were they thinking.? The shortened bed of Louis 14th was strange, he feared dying in his sleep so he slept sitting up.

Visited here and saw the private chambers of the king and queen as well as several other areas restricted to most visitors. Extremely opulent to say the least. With 2,000 room housing 6,000 inhabitants it's impossible to see it all in one day. The hall of mirrors is perfectly situated so the sun shines on the mirrors at any time of the year. Louis XIV's bedroom is situated such that the when he awakens the sun shines into his room.
