Château Azay-Le-Rideau

Azay Le Rideau Chateau, France
#LifeAtExpedia The magnificent Chateau D'Azay-le-Rideau, one of many sites in the Loire Valley. Take a couple of days to see the main Chateaux, including Chenonceau, Cheverney, Chambord, Amboise, etc. and to taste some of the local and cheeses!
Azay-le-Rideau is renowned for its magnificent Renaissance château, a dreamy fairy-tale-like building that is surrounded by a moat and lovely gardens. The Château d'Azay-le-Rideau was built in the 16th century by a wealthy financier. The design of this stately château was greatly influenced by Italian architecture. The most notable features on the ground floor are the rib-vaulted kitchen and the dining room with a richly decorated chimney and numerous tapestries. Sumptuous Renaissance furniture and paintings decorate the reception rooms. In the town of Azay-le-Rideau, there is an interesting church, the Eglise Saint-Symphorien, that blends Romanesque and Gothic styles. The facade of the south aisle reveals remains of Carolingian reliefs. In the nearby Château of Saché, the famous author Honoré de Balzac (1799-1850) wrote some of his novels. The room where Balzac worked has been preserved as it was.
Château d’Azay-le-Rideau was actually built on a small island in the middle of the Indre river, making it look like it raises straight out of the waters. Located between Tours and Chinon, the château is like something out of a fairy tale, a perfect example of the charm and elegance of the Renaissance era.
