Before you set foot on the Loire Valley, you will be able to experience the magic of this magical land in person, overlooking the Chambord Fortress on the Kesong River, the Azul Lido Castle that embraces the Andel River, and the Chenonceau across the Cher River. The castle, the medieval Gothic-style castle of Amboise and the Renaissance Clorus Castle, the Chaumont Manor on the Loire, a natural oasis, and the Blois Castle, which highlights the image of the lily The medieval carving of the mythical Liv Castle. Many times, the beautiful words, in front of the castles, are all eclipsed, and they are more in the sense of shocking beauty from the soul.

I don't know if you still remember that there was a news in a certain year. A couple of French couples bought a cave with one euro. Two people worked for three years to save enough money to renovate the broken cave. Especially warm and romantic room. When I set this hotel, I didnt know the cave in the news. I saw the news just passing by. Until the day before the trip, the male owner asked me if I could read the traditional Chinese characters? I said, can you? So he opened the phone and clicked on the report about his cave. I gradually remembered it, this cave! This is really the most amazing hotel I have ever stayed at!

The Loire Valley is full of castles that have been transformed into hotels, and can be booked on Trip. We live here and there is a particularly shameful thing here. We both wanted to go to the castle, did not take the elevator to go up the stairs, saw a door that thought it was an exit and went out. I didn't expect the door to be a one-way door. I couldn't go back after I came out. We stood on the big platform on the side of the castle, behind the dark caves, and there was no one in a few minutes. At the beginning, I was quite calm and polite. "Is there anyone?" As time passed by, it was still not passed by. There were only a few guests in this huge castle. I also started to participate. Call for help, shout help. After a long time, the owner of the castle came out and forced to smile and said to me, "Do you see a jungle behind you? There is a small road there, you can walk down the path."

I stayed at this cave hotel for several days. The owner was very friendly and took the initiative to tell me which restaurant in the nearby town was delicious. The French are really very romantic. Every morning, he wore a black jacket and went to the bakery in the town to buy a baguette. When I got up to the restaurant, music, candlelight and French breakfast were in place. When I was having breakfast, he was sitting in the yard drinking coffee and saw the hot air balloon in the distance rushing over to call me out to see. Later, I was really not used to eating breakfast. Another person was watching. I said if I would get up early to eat together.

Chaumont Castle is not only the most classic European castle with its charming architecture and magnificent appearance, but also famous for its 19th International Garden. The 19th International Garden Art Festival in 2010 is being held. It will not end until October 17. It is also a gathering place for artists and artists of the festival. You can spend a whole day, wide your eyes and watch a variety of attractions decorated by "landscape artists" from around the world. Take a stroll along the Loire River from the castle and taste the prestigious Duran wines in the vineyards.

The most spectacular castle on the Loire River belongs to the Fortress, so the most beautiful castle is the water castle - its castle is called Chenonceau. The left and right wings of the Chenonceau Castle are spanned on both sides of the tributary of the Loire River, connected by a five-hole bridge. Therefore, it is also known as the "boat parked on the Zar River." After generations of heroes, Chenonceau became the most refined and romantic of all the castles in the Loire Valley. Although it is less than the gorgeous and magnificent of the burger, its delicate tenderness and exquisite beauty and the feminine atmosphere it exudes are not what the burger has.
