Villandry Chateau de la Loire Superb – A Must See Garden
The gardens at Chateau de Villandry is a true delight. They are tended with love and enthusiasm by Henri Carvallo, curator of the castle and great grand-son of Dr Joachim Carvallo who purchased the castle in 1906. When Dr. Carvallo purchased the property he was about to be demolished. He had been disfigured by the wall arches, fake windows and additions and the gap had been filled in.
Dr. Joachim Carvallo proposed architecture of the Renaissance and harmonious design of origin. He gave up a career impressive in science under the tutelage of a professor who later went on to win the Nobel Peace Prize and is dedicated to restoring Vchateau Villandry and its beautiful gardens.
Later, Dr. Carvallo founded the Association of Historical Mansion in order to save historic buildings throughout the France. You saved Villandry, which is now one of the most visited castles of the Loire Valley.
Carvallo a better job was the restoration of the gardens, which are still Fame Villandry. Gardens existed since the 16th century and were rebuilt under the instructions Carvallo following proof of prints found in "The Most Excellent Bastiments of France" (1576-1579) Androuet by Jacques Du Hoop.
Gardens Chateau de Villandry in the most magnificent examples of Renaissance gardens in France. The gardens are terraced on three levels, have been influenced by Italian gardeners led by Charles VIII. The plantation design at each level are as follows:
The first level is the highest, equal or above ground level with the castle, the Water Garden, The (water garden) with lawns, fountains whose edges are defined by arbors.
The second level consists of: The Ornamental Garden, (Garden of approval), composed of the Garden of the music, the garden of love decoration Flower Garden and Garden of Earthly Delights simple. In front of this level where the castle stands is a bed planted with a pergola shaded by vines on foot.
The third and lowest level is the vegetable garden The garden, (garden), consists of vegetable crops, fruit trees and shrubs, and herbs for seasoning or medicinal purposes. This garden, in the style of Louis XIV, and takes the form of a rectangle of slightly irregular shape around three sides of the top two levels of gardens. It is devoted to vegetables and has 9 square sections divided into beds of various colored plants, surrounded by perennials and hedges of boxwood.
Villandry is a vegetal feast, with large purple cabbage, leeks crazy zigzags of growth, blocks Pumpkin autumn, beds of yellow and green peppers and mounds of celery all replanted twice a year with a brilliant eye for the colors of the seasons.
On the other side of the palace garden, there is a maze of 12000 Beech cut.
All these elements are impressive in their gardens are own rights, so I do not recommend one over the other.
Villandry is well worth the visit. Without much pomp and ceremony, you can witness a castle living in harmony with nature, and the remarkable beauty of these gardens. Eight of the work of gardeners at the Chateau de Villandry full-time and 45,000 plant and 60,000 plants in his vegetable garden every year.
In July of each year of Chateau Villandry has Thousand Nights of Lights, when they light magic castle gardens of Villandry to 2000 candles. Bed when the sun begins to set, the candles burn until midnight after the beautiful park's most famous castle in the Loire. Strolling musicians play Baroque music which adds to the mystical atmosphere during this quintessence the experience of the Loire. Do not miss it – it is spectacular.
If you can not go to the Thousand Nights of Fire in July, then you certainly should try to see all the gardens of Villandry Castle in summer, and preferably about two hours before sunset, the light adds that certain "je ne sais quoi".
