Olivia Kubes-Palace of Versailles-Blog 2

I have already touched on how much I truly loved Paris as a little girl in my last post, but I forgot to mention that I literally had my bedroom Paris themed for a while so being there and seeing the architecture and buildings for myself truly was a dream come true. For this blog I will be talking about the Palace of Versailles. I have watched a few tv shows that have depicted the palace of Versailles in a way earlier time period and I never though for one second that it would look the same still today. The building has been preserved so nicely and the art and furniture that is still held inside is exquisite and truly tell a story and takes one back in time. The picture I have above was taken in the Hall of Mirrors and I felt like I was in the Beauty and the Beast movie or at least something royal. Most of what was built in the Palace of Versailles was to be dedicated to the king and to glorify him. The outside of the building is massive and made me gasp at how massive the estate was. I was honestly thinking to myself how many miles will I be walking??? Well, the walking was worth it. Once inside I felt like I went through a time machine and I felt so regal. Everything inside screamed expensive and luxury and I was just imagining the cost of everything. The palace was truly fit for a king! The Hall of Mirrors made me feel like a kid again but at the same time very grown up. I felt like I was in the worlds most luxurious fun house. The chandleries, mirrors, artwork and architecture made me feel like I was in a painting or in an illusion myself. The room went on and on and on and it was gorgeous every step I took. Being in the palace made me wish I could actually travel back in time to see people dancing in gowns and attending balls thrown by the king, what a luxurious life some lived there. I think the Palace of Versailles is a building that will always draw in tourists and will always be an exquisite piece of architecture. (I took this picture myself!)
