Top 10 Art Museums in Loire Valley, Centre-Val de Loire
Old world villages and storybook chateaux bedeck the Loire, once fought over by Gauls, Romans, Visigoths and even Attila the Hun. Rent bikes and roll through the lush valley, visiting fortresses in Amboise and Angers, UNESCO-designated Chartres Cathedral and the Gothic cathedral in Nantes. Musee Jules Vernes houses replicas of inventions designed by the futuristic author. Pay respects to other former residents: the Romans in Tours, the cave dwellers of Touraine, and the liberator of Orleans, Joan of Arc.

The museum has a lot going for it and is worth a stop. However, the huge and wonderful cedar is the most memorable part of the stop. The size of the tree is staggering, and the fact that it is standing in the center of a major city is even more amazing. It is not only beautiful, but it is a real feat in gardening. I not seen many thing like it! It is not a Redwood, but it is still incredible!
