The Palace of Versailles
West of Paris, on ground that was once little more than marsh and woodland, a king built a palace out of light. He wanted a place that would gather the sun itself and give it back through glass and gilding and water. He was Louis the Fourteenth of France, and men called him the Sun King.
Tender and reassuring, steady when things aren't, present and calm without ever overpromising.
