The Chateau de Chenonceau was built in the 16th
century and is undoubtedly one of the most popular tourist destinations
in France's Loire Valley. The chateau is certainly the most unique
chateau in the Loire Region of France.
Situated on the River Cher, Chateau de Chenonceau actually spans the Cher River. The chateau gardens, surrounding
forests and its location in the French countryside all contribute to the
charm and elegance
of Chenonceau.
