Itinerary
1. The first castle which you visit is Chateau de Chennonceau, it is one of the oldest and most beautiful castles in the France that is today only surpassed by the might of the famous Versailles in Paris. From the moment it was created, beauty and unique style of the castle that was built over the river Cher attracted royalty and nobles from all around the Europe. Have an audio-guided experience in this castle and explore the past on your own!
2. After tasty lunch head to your next destination which would be the famous chateau Chambord Chambord is a radically unique work, one of the jewels in the heritage of humankind. Its vocation is at once symbolic, aesthetic and spiritual. It is not only an affirmation of royal power, but also an evocation of the ideal city; as a monument, it remains an enigma that has yet to divulge all its secrets. Chambord is perhaps the equivalent in architecture of Mona Lisa in painting. The royal hunting lodge Chateau de Chambord was started in 1519 by the Valois King Francis I. It was favoured by kings fond of hunting such as Henry II and Louis XIV.
