After 11 months of living in Paris, I experienced Versailles for the first time. On the perfect day of rain and strong wind. Some may call that a "storm" But the good thing is that no queque to get in. I heard from others that some days, you'll be waiting in line for 2 hours. I really wanted to see the Takashi Murakami exhibition which is actually in the Chateau. You basically can see the exhibition if you get a ticket for the palace. It's controversial as some are totally against this idea of exhibiting modern art in a historical and political place. But that's what make it amazing. There are such out of place objects but in some ways they look good together.
