Nassau See & Do Guide: Versailles Gardens and French Cloister

Versailles Gardens and French Cloister

Sightseeing - Parks & Gardens
Paradise Island, Nassau, New Providence Island, Bahamas

If you like formal gardens, visit this complex on Paradise Island. In 1962, Huntington Hartford, an heir to the A&P fortune, reassembled a 13th-century Augustinian cloister that had been purchased and brought to the U.S. by William Randolph Hearst in the 1920s. Hartford had it set in a terraced formal garden in the European style and threw in an eclectic assortment of statuary. The garden's serenity makes it a popular wedding spot for locals and visitors alike. Free. Paradise Island, Nassau.
