Day 12 / Chateau Chenonceau and Château de Chaumont

Today, I visited the Chateau Chenonceau, which spans the River Cher and is one of the most well-known châteaux of the Loire valley.



After Chateau Chenonceau, I visited the Château de Chaumont, which was founded in the 10th century by Odo I, Count of Blois.

Inside, the installation art of Gabriel Orozco was a nice surprise. He is an artist who draws inspiration from the surroundings from which he works. He does not have a working studio, but instead, goes to a variety of places to create installations.
