Château de Chenonceau

This is perhaps the most beautiful of the Loire palaces. It is built over the river and has a fascinating interior. You can rent a multimedia audio guide although there is a free booklet included with entry fee. The pace does get crowded – advance tickets are a good essential in high season.
