Disneyland Park. Built in 1990's in Marne de Vallee, previously known as EuroDisney. Probably has more tourists than any other attraction in France (quite expensive!!)

I thought this would be right up your street @EmilieT

When my sister had a second home in France we drove down to it one year taking our Mum.

En-route we made a journey to the Palace Of Versailles. It was a lifetime dream for Mum as we all read a lot of historical books by Jean Plaidy and Georgette Heyer

We all wanted to see the home of Louis XIV (The Sun King) who featured in many of the books we read.

Quite stunning...
