In Blois, this little street tilts toward the river like a quiet thought. light slips between shutters, a florist opens early and someone carries the day’s first basket of errands down the slope. Above it all, a pink umbrella, a remnant from 'Octobre Rose', hangs giving a splash of colour against the limestone calm.
Blois is a city of layers: medieval passages, Renaissance façades, and traces of kings and revolutions woven into everyday life. On a Saturday morning, none of that is evident, what you feel instead is the gentleness of a place that still moves at a human pace.
“In the Loire, even the quiet streets know how to welcome a weekend.”
Part of the “Streets of the Loire” Series
Each Saturday, we explore a moment from the Loire Valley — its streets, its textures, and its quietly unfolding stories.
