This is not Disneyland, luckily!

Josselin - Bretagne (France)

What we liked in this castle is that it has the same fairy-tale charm as the fake Disneyland sleeping beauty’s one, but this one is real.
Maybe it’s just me and my opinion is irrelevant,
but I cannot help thinking of the dull melancholy
which I feel when I have to see all the fake imitations of ancient architectures
in modern leisure places and theme parks.

Maybe also for this reason I don’t like Disneyland
and I felt quite depressed in Las Vegas
(which is a Disneyland for adults, what else?
And one of the saddest and annoying places I have ever visited).

If you feel like knowing some general information on this totally real castle, please click on the below picture.

A true castle of childhood dreams and medieval stories.

Beautiful Marisa, Sad but disneyland is the closet some ever get to the fairy tale feel of things because most do not get to see the real thing. Thanks for sharing the "real thing" which I will probably never see in real life. As for Los Vegas. I have no interest in going to that place. I can imagine what goes on there. Branson, Mo. is usually my vacation destination. BV
