The very spirit of the Renaissance courses through the veins of the Loire Valley, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Bathed in a beautiful light that drew the Kings of France and many artists to its bucolic natural landscapes, it distils an architectural and landscaping model of unprecedented sophistication.
