The gardens were built in 1661 by André Le Nôtre and added to later on by Jules Hardouin-Mansart. We also found out that Marie-Antoinette built a section of the gardens called the Palaces of Trianon.

Versailles
On thursday we went to Versailles. We had to wait in a really long line to get our tickets and be able to go in but we finally made it to the front.
We then walked through the castle of Versailles which is really big. After looking at the house we went and ate lunch in the gardens which was nice. We saw a very nice part of the garden called the Orangerie which was pretty impressive and thought that we would go but then we turned around and saw the rest of the garden. It is MASSIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
