Chāteau de Chambord

The royal Chāteau de Chambord at Chambord, Loir-et-Cher, France is one of the most recognizable chāteaux in the world because of its very distinct French Renaissance architecture that blends traditional French medieval forms with classical Italian structures.

Chambord is the largest castle in the Loire Valley, but was built to serve only as a hunting lodge for Franēois I, who maintained his royal residences at Chāteau de Blois and at Chāteau d'Amboise.

C'est une magnifique photo ou le cadrage laisse admirer pleinement l'architecture savante de ce château. C'est superbe.

I'd like to share this little residence with him, when hunting. I just saw a little room with a beautiful view at the top of the 32th tower, you can see there, on the right :-)
