About Gardens of Versailles
The Gardens of Versailles are among the most magnificent formal gardens in the world, spanning approximately 800 hectares of meticulously designed landscape west of the Palace of Versailles. Commissioned by Louis XIV in 1661 and masterfully crafted by landscape architect André Le Nôtre, these gardens defined the French formal garden style that influenced royal courts across Europe for centuries.
