Description
On our first day free of travelling we decided to visit the magnificent Château de Chenonceau.
"Built on the river Cher, where the unique beauty of its architecture reflects in the water, the Château de Chenonceau is the Val de Loire’s finial."
Notes
Be warned this château can be teeming with visitors and it is probably best to arrive early in order to avoid queues at the ticket office. Most areas of the château are open to the public though the rooms can be very crowded during peak periods. Set aside a good part of the day to explore the château and extensive gardens and park.
