Created in the 17th century at the will of King Louis XIV and designed from scratch by André Le Nôtre, Versailles is world-renowned for its castle and park. A true garden city, the royal city has a unique setting, a harmonious blend of preserved historic districts and "green" spaces. Located 17 kilometers from Paris, it is served by 5 train stations and 3 highways and is thus very quickly accessible from all of eastern Île-de-France. Each day, the City attracts nearly 70,000 workers. With more than 1300 shops, it benefits from dynamic local consumption that actively participates in its liveliness and the quality of its living environment.
