The Gardens of the Palace of Versailles are a stunning example of formal French garden design, created during the reign of King Louis XIV. Spanning over 800 hectares, the gardens feature meticulously manicured lawns, intricate flowerbeds, and a series of fountains, including the famous Latona Fountain. Designed by landscape architect André Le Nôtre, the gardens are divided into distinct sections, each showcasing different styles and themes. Visitors can explore the Grand Canal, numerous sculptures, and the Orangerie, which houses a collection of citrus trees. The gardens reflect the grandeur and ambition of the Versailles estate.
