Next day 1 took the train for Versailles, formerly theL capital aud seat of gvrîetof 1 France. The buildings vnd pertain ings there to are now called the Palace of Versailles. It is looked upoçn as the 4 most historical place in Franc. l was built under Louis XIII and entargoed bv Louis XIV. Iu the Palace lui 1855 jQueen , Victoria was rceoivedE bY Napoleon.
