This place is amazing even in the winter. The downside is that most of the fountains are not running in the middle of the winter but with spring coming back, they should be back to their full glory. It used to be the property of the brother of Louis XIV. Unfortunately, the castle burned but the park gives you a glimpse of how beautiful this place must have been.



 No my friends, this is not the castle, it's just "pavillon des écuries" which used to be the stalls but now is a museum. Yeah, I know it was a ruff life for the royal horses.

A little coffee Shop in the middle of the park, which is so adorable but it was not warm enough to be using one of these chairs so we kept on moving.
