The journey to Chenonceaux began with more wonderful views from the train, as we passed an old walled town and hillside vineyards. It took three trains and more than 6.5 hours to reach Chenonceaux. Unbeknownst to us, Chenonceaux is a very tiny village (I've provided photographs of the entire place above), lacking in all amenities. It has no grocery store and only overpriced tourist restaurants inside the few hotels. The village exists only because of its famous castle over the river, Chateau de Chenonceau. Unfortunately, we hadn't realized that the only way to see said castle (even just its exterior) is to pay admission, nor that admittance ends at 6:30. Let's just say that I didn't get the photographs I'd hoped for, so I'll share two from the internet that were taken in ideal conditions so you'll know what I'd wanted to achieve.
