Chateaux de Versailles

The castle is one of the most visited chateaux in France and one of the largest palaces in the world. It is the grand example of French architecture. The castle has over 2000 windows, 700 rooms, over 1200 fireplaces, 67 staircases. In 1789, this magnificent palace was converted into museum of French history. Aside from the "Hall of Mirroros" and the lavishly decorated King's bedroom, the museum also caters paintings, sculptures, tapestries and furnitures. The Versailles garden has 1300 units of fountain which uses water coming from the Seine River. (Versailles, France / 2010)

Place de Concorde

This 8-hectare Place de Concorde is the largest public square in Paris. Originally named Place Louis XV, the square was designed originally for the purpose of showcasing equestrian statue of the king. The construction of the square began in 1754 and was completed in 1763. Several decades after its construction, the square became a focal point for the bloodiest French revolution. Following the revolution, the square suffered several transformations and changes of names until it was finally called Place de Concorde - symbolizing the troubled era and the hope for a better future. In the middle of the square is a more than 3200 year old obelisk, standing 23 meters tall, weighing more than 220 tons and is covered with heiroglyphs. (Paris, France / 2010)
