One of the most beautiful Chateaux (castles) in the world, Chenonceaux sits on the bank of a river, with the long rectangular wing on the right actually crossing the river. The wing was originally built as a bridge so Diane de Poitiers could take her friends across and go hunting. It was later covered and used for balls and other entertainment, and served as a hospital in WW I. More photos will follow at a later date.
