Gardens at Chateau Villandry |
This Chateau is one of the many in the Loire Valley region of France. You will see it marked on the left hand side. They don't even mark it as a chateau in this graphic! And it isn't as grand as Chambord or Chenonceaux. But I really enjoyed it just as much. It was a bit more on a human scale.
The Chateau Villandry was one of the last of the great chateau to be built during the Renaissance. The gardens were restored to their Renaissance glory in the 1900's. They are now managed on an organic basis.
Wow, it's beautiful! I'd love to go to France one day.

Hi Carole,

ReplyDeleteThere is lot of articles on the web about this. But I like yours more, although i found one that’s more descriptive.
