On the way from the Gran canal to the Trianons visitors find splendid parks, like the one in the photo. Green grass and local trees --oak, ash, beech, cherry-- form one of the most beautiful parks I have ever seen.
Visitors should not miss two very special gardens found in Versailles: the 'Orangery' and Vegetable Garden. In the 'Orangery' there are 1,000 Mediterranean trees --orange, lemon and pomegranate trees, with their little fruit thanks to their special pruning. In the three hundred years old Vegetable garden tourists can visit the most unusual varieties of vegetables produced in France.
