The freebie view of Chenonceau castle. Click to encastellate.
The river flows lazily under the arches. In summer it's not unusual to see a kayak or two on the water. By the way, the water is nearly crystal clear. The river bottom is visible and fish abound.
A closer look.
I am stunned by its beauty; look closely and you can see the high water marks on the stones.
