Formal Gardens at Château de Villandry

Captured in the heart of France's Loire Valley lies the exquisite formal gardens surrounding the Renaissance masterpiece, Château de Villandry. Manicured hedges form precise geometric patterns that lead to vibrant flowerbeds bursting with orange marigolds amidst white blossoms. A stone balustrade adorned with classical carvings frames this scene while the castle stands regally against an azure sky, its architecture echoing centuries past.
