St Emilion

There are more than 10,000 vinyards, but the lovely little medieval village of St.-Emilion lures one to linger. Sloping vineyards roll down to its 13th-century ramparts on all sides, enclosing cobbled medieval streets lined with wine stores and bakeries selling lights-as-air macaroons. The small parcel vineyards that fan out from St.-Emilion's town walls provide an intimate opportunity to sample some of Bordeaux's most refined and complex red wines.

Notes
Home of the most flamboyant court since the collapse of ancient rome, and indisputably France's most-visited chateau, Versailles was built by the French monarchy at the height of its glory - a century long heyday lasting from 1682 when Louis XIV brought his court and entourage of 20,000 here from Paris until 1789 when Louis XVI and Queen Marie Antoinette were notified that revoultionary mobs were arriving. In 1662, on the site of his father's old hunting lodge, Louis XIV began construction of France's new seat of government, which became a symbol of royal excess. Its most memorable room is the restored 236 foot long Galerie des Glaces (hall of mirrors) whose seventeen large arched windows are matched by as many sparkling beveled mirrors, which have witnessed many elaborate balls, Louis XVI marrying Marie Antoinette, and the signing of the Treaty of Versailles in 1919.

The elaborately baroque grands appartmentes are equally extraordinary. After exploring the palace's interior, take a stroll through versailles famous 250 acre park.
