In awe of its magnificent baroque façade of three parts with the statue of Madonna and Child above the door, even before I went inside! This of course the very first Baroque Church built in Bordeaux, completed in 1620! What's really intriguing is how the inside completely different from the outside. It's more of a "barrel" form with exquisite frescoes ornamented ceiling and a main altar with Corinthian columns supporting a stunning circular pediment. A registered national monument and a treasure for any visitors. I absolutely admire this Baroque Church.

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
