The Loire Valley is a beautiful place, steeped in history and tradition. Much of this history manifests itself through the numerous chteaux that are dotted about the valley, one of the most beautiful being the Chteau de Chenonceau. This is a masterpiece of Renaissance architecture, with a ballroom which straddles the Cher River. The Loire also has some marvellous wines, and it achieves greatness with the sweet wines of Vouvray, Coteaux du Layon, Bonnezeaux and Quarts de Chaume.
