Versailles is three hours from Le Havre. That is a long drive for a shore day — and it is worth it. The Palace of Versailles is not just a building. It is the physical expression of absolute power: 700 rooms, 2,000 acres of formal gardens, a Hall of Mirrors that runs for 73 metres and still stops people in their tracks.
