Cities of France: Amboise

20 km from the tour upstream of Loire is located the Pozhaise City of Amboise (AMBOISE) with impressive Castle www.Chateau-Amboise.COM, in which Leonardo da Vinci lived from 1516 to 1519, and his residence of Clo-Luce, in whose walls is now located the Museum of the Great Italian.

A little south of the city can be found similar to Pagoda tower (XVIII B.) – All that remains from the once huge castle of Shantelup. Now around is broken Park Mini-Chateau, which presents more than forty models of Loire locks.
