Sightseeing route in Azay-le-Rideau

Azay-le-Rideau

【Castle description】

It’s a castle on the banks of the Indre river in the Loire region. When we compare this castle with other castles in this region, it’s small and we don’t take much time for the visit. But it’s one of masterpieces in the beginning of the Renaissance and the castle reflected on the mirror of the water is beautiful.
