After Paris Versailles and its Palace, among one of the main attractions to see in France is the chateaux of the Loire Valley.

By the middle of the 16th century, King “Francois I” had shifted the center of power in France from the Loire back to the ancient capital of Paris. The ascension to the throne of King Louis XIV in the middle of the 17th century made Paris the residence of the royal Family, especially when the Palace of Versailles was built in the end of the 17th century.

Nonetheless, the Loire Valley still remains an area where the charm of the past keep going. It is difficult not to be impressed by this area. At 2 hours by car from Paris, you will find several impressive Chateau and the architectural heritage of the historic towns of Amboise, Angers, Blois, Chambord, Chinon, Nantes, Orléans, Saumur, and Tours along the Loire River in France.
