Sunrise over Avenue de Paris from the front courtyard at Versailles Palace, France-8a

            Louis XIV statue is in the middle of the photograph with Ave de Paris extending into the distance.  Building on the left of the Avenue is the Versailles Academy of Equestrian Arts and to the right is theGalerie des Sculptures et des Moulages (Sculptures de Versailles / Gypsothèque du Louvre)

The Palace of Versailles was the principal royal residence of France from 1682, under Louis XIV, until the start of the French Revolution in 1789, under Louis XVI. It is located in the department of Yvelines, in the region of Île-de-France, about 20 kilometres (12 miles) southwest of the centre of Paris. 

The palace is now a Monument historique and UNESCO World Heritage site, notable especially for the ceremonial Hall of Mirrors, the jewel-like Royal Opera, and the royal apartments; for the more intimate royal residences, the Grand Trianon and Petit Trianon located within the park; the small rustic Hameau (Hamlet) created for Marie Antoinette; and the vast Gardens of Versailles with fountains, canals, and geometric flower beds and groves, laid out by André le Nôtre. The Palace was stripped of all its furnishings after the French Revolution, but many pieces have been returned and many of the palace rooms have been restored. (Wikipedia)
