Not just a zoo garden...

I kissed a giraf in dou? , what can i say. I fell in love with the stonemines with Bamboo , the wild and free concept of the zoo...the nice camping place.

almost in the wild?

Doué was already known in prehistoric times , therefor it has also some curiosities.
-moulin de la fourchette- this is a verry rare towermill.
-A karolingisch donjon- It is the ruin of a 10' century house
-La sabliere- is a cave that is used too make artisanal rosewater
-rue des perri?res - cave-houses ath both sides of the street
-Rosarium - 500 different species of roses.
