The crown jewel of the Loire Valley

Step into the timeless elegance of Château de Chenonceau, one of the Loire Valley’s most enchanting treasures.

Outside, stroll the formal gardens, a living masterpiece of symmetry and bloom. Lose yourself among rose-lined pathways, manicured hedges, and tranquil corners that invite pause and reflection. With each turn, the château reveals another scene of poetic charm—a perfect harmony between architecture and nature.
