Château de Chenonceau

   

      Chenonceau is easily the most beautiful castle that I have visited in my journeys. The chateau is built over Le Cher river and is amazingly gorgeous. Chenonceau was the preferred choice of several Kings of France and their Queens, including Catherine di Medici. Being located in central France, Chenonceau is only 2 hours away from Paris, and even closer to several other large French cities such as Orleans and Tours.

Chenonceau is surrounded by two enormous gardens, a few restaurants and a hedge maze. A visit to the castle and its' grounds is an experience you will never forget.
