Château de Versailles (Bassin de Latone)

In the story · Photo-shoot montage: Versailles at dusk

The 'fairytale' evening shoot: Jo releases a white dove in a floating gown in front of the Latona fountain, the palace glowing behind her. The tiered marble fountain and its gilded frogs were fully restored in 2015 and sit at the head of the Tapis Vert.

Where to stand for the photo

Stand at the top of the Latona steps with the fountain filling the lower frame and the Grand Canal vanishing westward; on fountain-show days a garden ticket is needed.
