4. Château de Villandry

Château de Villandry is best known for its beautiful gardens, some of the most famous in France. These gardens are arranged in perfect shapes and patterns, with sections for flowers, vegetables, and water features. The designs change with the seasons, so there’s always something new to see.

Built in the 16th century, the Château was the last of the major Renaissance castles constructed in the Loire Valley. The interiors show a blend of French elegance and Spanish influence, with beautiful wooden ceilings and tapestries.
