金句精选

  • "Versailles was built by Louis XIV, the Sun King, who was a complete egomaniac. From statues of him dressed as Julius Caesar to the Hall of Mirrors, the palace is a mega monument showcasing the sheer grandeur and luxury of absolute monarchy." 凡尔赛宫由“太阳王”路易十四建造,他是一个彻头彻尾的极度自负者。从身着恺撒大帝服饰的雕像到镜厅,整座宫殿就是展示绝对君主制无比恢弘与奢华的巨型图腾。

  • "There are two types of travelers: those who stand in line and those who skip it. Booking a timed-entry passport ticket or guided VIP access is the only way to save your sanity at Versailles." 旅行者分为两种:在长队中苦苦等待的人,以及优雅 Skip the line 绕过长队的人。预订定时入场的通票或 VIP 导览团,是在凡尔赛宫拯救你精力的唯一法则。

  • "Marie Antoinette loved to escape court life by dressing up as a peasant. She built a little hamlet of twelve thatched-roof houses—a working farm where she could live the life of an everyday peasant, offering a stark contrast to the opulence of the main palace." 玛丽·安托瓦内特王后喜欢通过扮成农妇来逃离宫廷生活。她建造了一个由12座茅草屋组成的真实小农庄,在此体验普通农妇的生活,与主宫殿的极尽奢华形成了极其鲜明的对比。
