A visit at Versailles


For some weeks ago there was a programme of Versailles and the king Luis XIV on swedish tv. The king built the castles over a 30 years period and used the people in france to do the work. Its a fantastic work but a lot of the people were hurt and died during the work. Luis had different architects, as well also different mistresses, beside his wife, helping him and offcourse it costed huge amount to do the building and the gardens. The king wanted the castle to be open for public and also wanted the ordinary people to talk with him. In SL there is a Versaille too and i had to give it a look. I can understand that the elegant mirror room is difficult to build in sl, but i wish I one day could see that too, both in rl and sl.

Greetings,

i think you missed the Hall of mirrors when you visited Versailles. It is located in the first floor as the one in RL.

best regards

Grand Duchess Janine Debevc
