This morning, we visited the city of Blois, ~15 min drive from our hotel. |
The bedroom for Catherine de' Medici. |
There was a piano at the end of this long room. |
The object on the ceiling is the initials of Henry II (H) and Catherine de' Medici (C). |
This plate was kind of grotesque. I wonder if this was actually used as a plate (to put food on), or was it just for decoration?? |
The spiral staircase from inside. |
The entrance of the château. |
This horse statue looked very real. |
After visiting the château, we walked around the city. Found three big keys (trois clefs). I don't know the meaning of them. |
In almost all the cities/towns/villages we visited, we found this type of wood-framed buildings. |
We just wandered around without looking at a map. |
Took a break for lunch. We got a chicken kebab sandwich at a kebab restaurant. |
It was huge, and just one sandwich (with French fries) was enough for two of us. We ate something non-French, which was kind of refreshing. |
And we came back to the river. |
