SHRIKS traveled to Loire Valley a few years ago, as part of its Denim Travelogue series.
Vallée de la Loire (Loire Valley, France)
The Loire Valley known as the Cradle of French and Garden of France, is located next to the Loire River. The valley is known for abundance of vineyards, orchards, historic towns, chateaux - more than 300, and architecture. You should travel there as well.
The French kings and Royalty not wanting to stay far away from the seat of Power, built Chateaux in this lush and fertile valley. The Chateaux highlight the talent and architectural Brilliance of the Renaissance and Age of Enlightenment. Loire Valley is easily accessible from Paris, via regular train service. However our Founders drove down to Loire valley, to allow themselves adequate time to absorb the architectural heritage in the valley’s historic towns, especially at Château d’Amboise and Chenonceau.
You should certainly spend a few nights at Domiane Des Bidaudieres at Vouvray. This 15th century Chateau offers perfect luxury right in the heart of Vouvray vineyards. As you head to Vouvray, make sure you wear our Mara Denim Jacket
