Versailles

Perfect, green grass that looks and feels like carpet.

My favorite part about visiting Versailles is the beautiful and vast French gardens with rows of symmetrically planted trees and flowers.  But how do you explore this breathtaking land without wanting to throw these two troublemakers into the fountains? 

Rent a golf cart.  For about $40 an hour, you can cruise Versailles like rock stars!  Trust me, it is worth every centime.
