France Appolo Fountain

Le Bassin d'Apollon (The Apollo Basin), also called the Fountain of Apollo or the Apollo Fountain, is a fountain in the Gardens of the Palace of Versailles, France. Charles Le Brun designed the centerpiece depicting the Greek god Apollo rising from the sea in a four-horse chariot. A pond was dug on the fountain site in 1639 called "The Pond of the Swans". When King Louis XIV had it enlarged in 1671, the pond's east-west orientation and the common association of the King with Apollo prompted Le Brun to suggest dedicating the site to Apollo. The dawn theme was popular then and appears on some painted ceilings in European palaces. The fountain was constructed between 1668 and 1671.

Different angles to take it. Take some filters if you want to reduce the water structure for example.

There are 3 ways to get to Versailles by public transport. The number 1 used by most visitors is to take the RER C train that crosses Paris and follows “the Seine” along the bank of the river. Number 2 is to use the train line L starting at Saint Lazare in the center-north of Paris, close to the famous department store of Galeries Lafayettes & Printemps. And the last solution is to use the train line N starting in the south of Paris at Montparnasse in the chic district of Saint Germain des Pres in the 6th.
