Taken in Touraine - spring at Chateau de Chenonceau.

Château de Chenonceau in spring, with blooming gardens, reflections over the River Cher, and the elegant architecture of one of the Loire Valley’s most iconic châteaux.

Château de Chenonceau in spring is a study in balance, between architecture and nature. With the season bringing fresh colour to the surrounding gardens. In spring, that legacy is softened by tulips, blossom, and carefully tended parterres that frame each view without overwhelming it.

Here in Touraine, the arrival of spring does not announce itself loudly. It reveals itself gradually in the first blooms along the paths and in the calm harmony that defines Château de Chenonceau.

Early spring is a good time to visit before the real onslaught of tourists to one of Touraine's most popular sites.

“In Touraine, even the silence tells a story.”

Part of the “Taken in Touraine” Series
