Home Castles of the Loire Valley Château de Villandry (Villandry Castle)
Jun 30 2018

Among all the castles, scattered in abundance in the fertile Loire valley by eminent French kings, the Château de Vilandry, with its inimitable three-level gardens, stands out for its elegance. The château has an important historical heritage, since the peace treaty of Colombier was signed here. The Renaissance fortress of Villandry was designed by a bold architect in the shape of a horseshoe, and from its upper floors you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the unique system of gardens, so enchanting tourists. Such beautiful plant compositions, smoothly changing each other, can not be found on the whole planet. The upper (first) level is a water surface surrounded by fruit trees, just below are luxurious “Gardens of Love”, and the third tier is represented by an original ornamental vegetable garden with bright colorful flowerbeds. All this perfection is watered by an interesting system of channels and stylish fountains. To have a vacation in France and miss such beauty – just blasphemous, so tour company Metropol-Voyage is pleased to conduct excursions to the romantic castle Vilandry.
