Gardens
Sometimes contemporary art rears its ugly/silly head
Grand canal
After chateau and gardens we (some of us) went on to the Queen's domain, Marie Antoinette's private retreat and the hamlet, a village specially constructed for her to play peasant (so I think I once read)
Most of the furniture at Versailles is period-furniture, not the original stuff; except, I assume's MA's toilet
One of the larger buildings in the hamlet
The mill; I prefer to think of the hamlet as an early instance of social experimentation ("what if they were to eat only cakes?")
