L'Onde n'est pas seulement une salle de spectacle mais un lieu d'échange, avec la culture comme dénominateur commun. Dans un bâtiment aux lignes courbes et épurées, le projet architectural de l'Onde rassemble l'Espace culturel avec l'Ecole de danse et de musique. La scène principale représente le coeur du centre : pouvant accueillir jusqu'à 667 personnes, la salle voit passer concerts, pièces de théâtre et de danse contemporaine, one man shows ou encore des spectacles pour enfants. Le café de l'Onde, ouvert le mercredi et le samedi, ainsi que les soirs de spectacles dès 19h, accueille également les débats, lectures et autres rencontres. Pour compléter cette programmation éclectique, les "dimanches à l'onde" sont organisés chaque mois.

The coach gallery at the Royal Stables of Château de Versailles is impressive ... because the…read morehorse-drawn carriages are impressive (extravagant, pretentious, gaudy, or pick a word) ... just as they were 200 years ago, 100 years ago, and today. French Royalty (like Louis XIV), Emperors (like Napoleon I), and state visitors (like Czar Nicolas II) all rode in pimped out traveling thrones designed to impress with so much attention-grabbing bling that even Liberace would of been embarrassed. The stables were built from 1679 to 1682 and manned by up to 1,500 people during the Louis XIV era to house 2,000 horses. This setting on the ground floor of the Great Stables is a perfect home for the carriage museum. The coaches are works of art ... blending gold decorations, wood carvings, metal work, upholstery, and other decorative elements in creative, ostentatious, and luxurious ways to show the splendor of the sovereign. * Open 12:30 - 5:30 p.m. (6:30 in summer) * Closed Mondays * Admission is free / No ticket required * It's about 5 minute walk from the Château * Plan about 1 hour or less * There is no tour nor is it needed * Photography (without flash) is allowed * No food or drink allowed La Galerie des Carrosses at Les Écurie Royales is impressive. If your visit to Château de Versailles permits an hour excursion, I recommend taking the time to see the museum ... because the carriages were crafted to impress ... and their ornate flamboyance continues to impress.

It's a good stop on the way back to the train station - it's right on the way. Best of all - it's FREE! The exhibit space isn't huge - maybe it will take 30 minutes to go through, but it's worth a short detour. You'll get to see inside the historic stables, which still have the old feeding troughs. The kings horses lived better than I do - the interior is beautiful. The carriages on display are from the reign of Napoleon and later with lots from Napoleon III. I was a little surprised there wasn't anything from the Ancien Regime but maybe none of that stuff survived? Anyway, it's a great detour to a day trip to Versailles and a fascinating look at the old stables. If you're lucky, you may see some of the resident horses being trained.

The meal itself was outstanding and the actors were charming and engaging. We had spent the day touring Versailles chateau so we already had this time period on our brains. It was such a fantastic way to feel a part of history! My husband has a few allergies and the staff was so accommodating and understanding of his needs. They were able to tailor the pre-set dishes to suit him, that was so appreciated!! We also appreciated how the meal was reflective of the time period, such a nice touch!! you will not be disappointed should you decide to experience ReminiSens!

Our European vacation was made complete with a visit to Versailles. It is magnificent and just…read moremesmerizing. We had a private tour, which allowed us to appreciate the intricate details and rich history of the palace and the gardens. We did take a golf cart so we could get in as much of the gardens as possible. However, I will say that given the sheer size of Versailles, it truly feels like you need at least two days to fully capture and experience everything. After our tour , we rented golf carts and took them again. The gardens are stunning, and the opulence of the fountains and views called us back to see more. It's a must-see destination for anyone visiting France. It was truly unforgettable experience!

On line tickets do not accept American express. There are no quotas of EEC vs non EEC tickets, but large tour groups purchase morning tickets days if not weeks in advance, and will often have only EEC tickets left for customers, in addition to adding a big surcharge. Took Uber for around $40 from central Paris to the Palace entrance, with the $40 including tip built in. Could have taken the subway and then transferred to train for 6 euros to reach this place in the distant suburbs of Paris. Got tickets at the window for 35 euros apiece. EEC country residents pay 22 euros, and children under 12 free. If you have a discounted ticket you must bring your passport to prove that you are eligible at the entranc We were set to for 230pm entry tickets, but we showed up at the entrance at 9am, and they waved us through, as there was no line. Saw the hall of mirrors and enough ceiling paintings to sprain my neck. Walked along the expansive grounds surrounding the palace where it got quite hot despite it being only April. Spent half a day here, before the crowds got overwhelming, and then walked 30 minutes from the palace through the grounds to the railway station to take the train back to Paris 15 miles away. Viking river tours was charging $495 per person for the tour, but they arranged everything, and no standing in line. Cost the two of us $40 for Uber, $84 for tickets, and $8 for the metro.
