I bought my Versailles Palace tickets on Ctrip 🎫. I booked for 9:30 AM and arrived at the main gate on time. Following the signs (A/separate queue), I queued at 9:30 AM. Including queuing and security, it was a smooth 10 minutes to get into the palace! 👍 I got a Chinese audio guide for €5 (remember to bring your airplane headphones). I walked in one direction with the flow of people for about 1.5 hours (you can't go against the flow). Then I went to the other side to find the princess and prince's sleeping quarters, which were less crowded (I still can't find the prince's quarters). The exit is next to the restrooms down the stairs (allow time for queuing, especially for women). Once you leave the palace, you can't go back. You can visit the gardens, but due to rain and snow, the roads were a bit muddy, so I couldn't go. (A little regret, but I'll visit again sometime).

The moment you step into the garden of Versailles, you feel like you are in the golden dream of the Sun King. The hedges trimmed into geometric patterns are oily in the sun, and the golden chariots of the Apollo statue in the fountain pool seem to break out of the water. I walked barefoot across the lawn to the night music fountain show, the water column danced with the baroque movement, and the moonlight plated the silver edge of the Latona fountain. The most shocking thing is to stand at the end of the Grand Canal and look back at the palace, 300 years ago, the extreme luxury and human artistic ambition, spread out into a living oil painting in the sunset.

The Petit Trianon is a building with very few tourists, and the scale of the building is really not small. There are not many tourists visiting, but the building can be said to be quite grand and magnificent.
