The Loire Valley, a wealth of nature and culture<\/h2>

The Loire Valley<\/strong> is an outstanding cultural landscape classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site<\/strong> in 2000. The site includes a section of the river valley<\/strong> stretching 280 kilometres, from Sully-sur-Loire in Loiret to Chalonnes-sur-Loire in Maine-et-Loire.<\/p>

The region encompasses historic towns and cities such as Orleans, Blois, Amboise, Tours, Chinon, Montsoreau, Saumur and Angers<\/strong>, and crosses the departments of Loiret, Loir-et-Cher, Indre-et-Loire and Maine-et-Loire.<\/p>

The Loire Valley draws its unique character from several elements. The Loire River<\/strong> and the land<\/strong> around it which have nourished the vines yielding Loire wines<\/strong>, and the people who have built a local cultural identity<\/strong> throughout history.<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The outstanding royal Loire<\/strong>, the longest river in France<\/strong> and undoubtedly the wildest, is also one of the most surprising. Depending on the surrounding foliage as well as the water level and the weather, the Loire offers many different atmospheres that evolve with the seasons. Explore the flora and fauna that inhabit the Loire<\/strong>. Keep an eye out for terns and Eurasian beavers which you might spot with a little luck!<\/p>

The land and terroirs of Loire<\/strong> offer a landscape of subtle nuances and sharp contrasts. The region\u2019s vineyards in Orl\u00e9anais, C\u00f4teaux du Giennois, Cheverny, Vouvray, Touraine and Saumur produce exceptional wines<\/strong>.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Orl\u00e9anais in the Loire Valley<\/h2>
