Amboise

The city extends along both banks of the Loire River, marked by limestone cliffs and traditional French architecture at 52 meters above sea level.

The royal Château d'Amboise served as the residence of French kings from the 15th to 19th centuries, where Leonardo da Vinci rests in the chapel.

The annual European Renaissance Music Festival in September brings together musicians who perform on period instruments throughout the medieval streets.

The tourist office at 2 Place du Château provides maps, guided tour schedules, and information about the Loire Valley castles seven days a week.

The Pagoda of Chanteloup, rising 44 meters high, stands as the last remaining structure of the Duke of Choiseul's 18th-century castle complex.
