Loire Valley châteaux

Loire valley châteaux

The Loire Valley châteaux is my latest YouTube vlog detailing some of my exploits as I travel to various parts of the world.

On the 17th and 20th May 2017, I went to two of the most well-known châteaux in the Loire Valley as well as the small village of Chédigny.

The Château de Chenonceau is known for straddling the river Cher and for such historical figures as Catherine de Medici and Diane de Poitiers. During the 1st World War, it was used as a hospital and during the 2nd World War was the border between free and occupied France.

Chédigny is known for its rose festival each year at the end of May. I went too early in the day, but you get a small flavour of what is there.

And finally, the Château d’Amboise is known as being the final resting place of Leonardo da Vinci in its chapel.

This vlog is shorter than I would have liked, but just lately my time has been quite hectic.
