Abundance - Intelligence - Botanic Sciences - Romance - Luxuriance - France - Fragrances - Silence - Love - the Secluded valley of Elegance - Dance - Senses

Hidden in a small valley near the Indre river, just off the route linking Langeais and Azay le Rideau, the seven towers of  the charming Renaissance castle of La Chatonniere - whose history goes back to Middle Ages, the Hundred years  war and the War of Religions - are surrounded by twelve terraced gardens.

Geometrical or wild, blue, salmon or white, perfumed and feminine, they can be explored along an initiatory path...
