9 Most Hospitable Towns In Kentucky – Read the full article here
Versailles is a central Kentucky destination within the larger Lexington-Fayette Metropolitan Area. Central Kentucky itself has a network of Bourbon whiskey distilleries where the drink is made with aged Bourbon barrels. One of the oldest distilleries in Versailles is Woodford Reserve, established in 1812. After touring the distillery or sampling whiskey, visitors can see the other Kentucky tradition at the Lane’s End Farm for thoroughbred horses just a few minutes away. Versailles’ most striking landmark isn’t the horse farms but rather a medieval-style fort called the Kentucky Castle. This landmark is a boutique hotel and event center with a central keep that’s enclosed by stone walls and towers like a real medieval castle. For those wanting to meet new friends in Versailles, the town has a rich biking culture. Cyclists can team up with others to take on the 26-mile Midway/Versailles loop.
