Indre-Et-Loire : Discover
In the west of the Centre-Val de Loire region, the Indre-et-Loire is not short of places to discover. One thinks of course of its many castles. Amboise, capital of the Renaissance, Chenonceau, the fortress of Chinon, or the medieval city of Loches, to name but a few. This heritage is the legacy of the department's rich historical past. The department also has many picturesque villages of character, some of which are recognized as the Most Beautiful Villages of France, such as Crissay-sur-Manse and Montrésor. In the center, Tours shines with its economic activity, its cultural and student life. Crossed by the Loire and the Cher, it benefits from the advantages of a metropolis while being surrounded by nature. A rich biodiversity to be admired through a large choice of bicycle and hiking trails. It is also an opportunity to discover the vineyards where great wines were born: Vouvray, Montlouis or Saint-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil.
