Centre is south and a tiny bit west of Paris. It is composed of six districts and all are named after their principal river or rivers. Two of the rivers are the Loire and the Loir. This is not a misspelling; there are two lovely rivers. There are many chateaus along both and quite a few along the other rivers. The very famous Chenonceau is on the river Cher.
Less visited but very beautiful is Chateau Usse of Sleeping Beauty fame.
Of course there's more to life than visiting castles . . .
- Pros:Beautiful area of France with rivers, quaint villages and vibrant cities
- In a nutshell:Spend some time in the countryside. Stress free.

Why didn't I read your page on Chaumont before going to France? We went to Chaumont but skipped the garden festival. Too hot :-)
