Chateau de Chenonceau gardens

The gardens here were full of blooms of all colours surrounding perfectly manicured lawns and I could easily imagine the ladies of old in their long gowns strolling through these pathways. The limestone Chateau gleamed in the afternoon light and reflected in the river below its grand hall.
One smaller building was covered in purple wisteria, making it seem like a romantic cottage out of a fairy tale. Everywhere we looked another beautiful building or garden dazzled us.
On our way to the gate, we took the time to try our luck in the Chateau labrinth. In the centre of this maze, we stood in small gazebo covered with intertwining vines while we watched some families chasing young children through the twisting paths. Their laughter was infectious and raised our spirits as we headed back to our bus.Meer informatie
