Chapter 488: That's the Wanderer's Back

Leonardo da Vinci's tomb is now in the Chapel of St. Hubert. The Château d'Amboise was built on the heights of Amboise, with thick and high walls, which are the highest point of the town (as seen by the snowfall), and stand on the edge of the walls to overlook the town of Amboise on the Loire and the meandering river.

The estate that was given to Leonardo da Vinci by François I was a peaceful one, and Snow Fall and Winter Sunny walked along the quiet path and glanced at the door. 20 minutes drive from Champ Bouque. Although the earliest building of the castle was built in the fifteenth century, the main body was built in the seventeenth century. Since the 17th century, France has begun to promote the rigor of form.

Classical architectural style with an emphasis on symmetry. From the appearance, it can be seen that it has broken away from the Gothic style of French medieval buildings, with many towers and complex structures. This castle does not belong to the royal family, and has been owned by the French Yuhou family since its construction. The castle was confiscated during the French Revolution and later bought back by a marquis of the family, who was obsessed with it.

To this day, the descendants of the Yuhou family, a marquis couple still live in the city. Two years ago, Xueluo lived in a nearby farmhouse, and the hostess told Xueluo that Xuewani had the most beautiful interior in the whole castle. Two years ago, two years later, the bride in this photo is the Marquise, the owner of the current castle.

The white wedding dress she wore in the photo still hangs in the castle for visitors to see. The castle in The Adventures of Tintin is based on Snowny. The French are also quite brainy, and set up a "Tintin Memorial Museum" on one side, and the entrance fee is extra. I went to see it two years ago, and it was more suitable for children.

If Yukiro remembers correctly, Yukiro has never seen the cartoon, but it is not known why Yukiro has been carrying Professor Karculus, the cuckolded Professor in The Adventures of Tintin, since many years ago. I can't remember where he came from, but he accompanied the snow to many places. Two years ago in the souvenir shop of this castle bought Mr. Captain to accompany him.

This time, Tintin himself and his little white dog were all collected. The next attraction belonged to a local family at the time, but a French chancellor of the exchequer bought it and the couple rebuilt it, razing everything to the ground except for the tower in front of the castle that is now snowfall and winter sunny.

Later, the Chancellor's son mortgaged it to the royal family because of debts. It's boring, isn't it? Wait, here's the flashpoint. This Henry II was the son of the aforementioned François I of Snow Fall and Winter Sunny Beauty, and his lover Diana is said to have been the lover of François I, fifteen years older than Henry II (not a fuel-efficient lamp).

Diana was clever enough to put Chenonceau in order and build bridges over the castle so that it was the only castle in the world with a bridge. The fuel-efficient lamp knew that even if he lived in Chenonceau, the ownership of the castle would still belong to the royal family, and that Henry II would lose his power or change his mind.

So through a series of means, she finally took ownership of the castle. However, this did not work, Henry II was fourteen years old in an arranged marriage to a famous Italian family of the same age as him, Catherine hated Diana to the core, and as soon as Henry II died, she kicked Diana out.

It's not a fuel-efficient lamp. Two years ago, two years later, Diana, who was talked about in the first part, came after she was kicked out by Catherine, and this was a quid pro quo that Catherine forced her. It was a fortress built by the Count of Blois (the Count of the town of Blois) and was fortified as a castle.

Later, one of his heiresses took the castle and married it to the family of Amboise (the family of the town of Amboise), and the castle remained the family of Amboise ever since, and it was later bought by Catherine, the wife of Henry II. When she drove Diana away, Diana was rightfully in possession of Chennonso.

She couldn't sweep it away as soon as the door was closed, so she exchanged the one in her hand for Chenonso. Numerous castles in the strip. The above are the five that Snow Fall selects that are of more interest. If you're visiting the Loire for the first time, basically three castles will be fine. If you want to know more about some castles, you can search this website.

The official website of the castle complex in Chinese. After the castle tour in Nantes, the snow falls and the winter weather sets off towards Nantes. Nantes is the largest city in western France and was the capital when Brittany was previously an autonomous principality. The most famous attraction in the city is the castle of Brittany, but the snow and winter are already in full swing and the castle is not going to be visited again.

So I simply set Nantes as a stop for this trip, booked a comfortable hotel, slept peacefully, and got up the next morning to walk around the city easily and happily without any burden. I don't know if it's because of Easter, or if the snow falls and the winter weather gets up too early, and the city is empty and bleak. If it weren't for Xiaoyue, she was a serious person.

Xueluo was afraid that she would think Xueluo was sick, and Xueluo would definitely walk in the middle of the city and sing loudly: "This city is so empty." ~Alone。 "Hotel RadissonBlu Hotel Nantes This hotel is in a good location and hardware, but there is no parking and vehicles can only be parked in the underground car park opposite the hotel.

On the way from Nantes to Mont Saint-Michel, Wren followed Xiaoyue to visit her friend who was married to Wren. As soon as they met, this friend's French husband gave Xueluo and the two of them a veneer gift, and Xueluo trembled and accepted the cordial gesture of the foreign country and the opposite sex, and was very nervous. The French really love desserts, and after the meal, Xue Luo and Dong Qingmei chatted in the living room.

Although her husband doesn't understand the language, he is very enthusiastic and greets Xueluo and Dong Qingmei with all kinds of ice cream, candy, and snacks. As soon as the snow fell, I ate a Häagen-Dazga and a Snickers ice cream. After lunch in Rennes, Snow Fall and Winter Sunny Weather advanced to Mont Saint-Michel. Many visitors to Mont Saint-Michel choose to stay in nearby cities.

For example, Saint-Malo, but Xueluo and Dongqingmei choose to stay in the hotel in the scenic area of Mont Saint-Michel, which is mostly MOTEL, and the price is not cheap. Snow Fall and Winter Sunshine booked the Grand Mercure Hotel, and their style of doing things was a little sloppy. There are a number of hotels in the scenic area, but all vehicles entering the scenic area must be hotel guests.

Therefore, the hotel will provide guests with the code to pass through the access control of the vehicle. But Xueluo and Dongqingmei's hotel did not inform in advance, so Xueluo and Dongqingmei's car was stuck in the access control, and there were many cars in the back. Ring the call bell, the staff on the call does not speak English. A girl came from behind to help translate, and the staff of the scenic spot also came on a small bicycle.

When I asked the front desk why I didn't tell the password in advance, the front desk said innocently and cutely, because Xueluo didn't know your email address. The location relationship between the hotel and the attractions is shown in the map, and the snow falls and the winter is beautiful in the No. 1 hotel.

i.e. Grand Mercure Hotel. There is a free shuttlebus that takes visitors to the foot of Mont Saint-Michel, and visitors are not allowed to drive their own private cars down the mountain. Not much is known about the historical snowfall of Mont Saint-Michel. To describe it simply, this is a once upon a time that had a mountain.

There is a story of a temple on the mountain. This small hill by the sea is called Mont Saint-Michel, and the temple built on it is called the Abbey of Mont Saint-Michel. It is in Normandy, the equivalent of the Potala Palace in Tibet, which is a place of pilgrimage for believers and a NO.1 attraction for tourists. In fact, the panoramic view of Mont Saint-Michel is only in the evening, and the sky is slightly blue.

The mountain is lit up to look good, and if there is water, the reflection is also very beautiful. However, due to the fact that the temperature is too low, the body temperature is about a few degrees, and the first thing that the two of them in autumn clothes go out to the hotel during the day is to rush into the toilet and hug the radiator together, and they really don't have the courage to go out again at night.

The one on the left is beautiful: La Mere Poulard Mont Saint-Michel This restaurant, not far from the upper pass, is more expensive. The specialty is a huge local quiche with foam, similar to omelette, which is normal for both snowfalls. Later, when they ordered dessert, the two of them speculated on the French menu and saw words similar to "caramel" and "apple" and ordered a dessert.

The dessert turned out to be a foaming egg cake with caramel applesauce, and the two laughed out loud in front of the waiter. When it comes to Normandy, probably everyone knows a little bit about the Normandy landings in World War II. During the Normandy landings, the Allies crossed the English beaches and selected five beaches to land in Normandy, France.

This map is very clearly mapped, from left to right: Sword Beach, Juneau Beach, Golden Beach, Ohama Beach, and Utah Beach. Among them, Ohama Beach suffered the most casualties. Drive out onto the grass by the beach and walk down the sandy beach.

Watch the waves come up and down again and again, and pick up a few stones as a souvenir. Even in the bright sunshine, people are still wrapped in their coats by the cold wind, and they face the English Channel with a solemn expression in the wind, as if the smell of blood in World War II has not dissipated. A cemetery dedicated to the U.S. military is also located here.

The French government donated the cemetery to the United States, so it can be said that Snow Fall and Winter Sunny Beauty are also standing on the territory of the United States. Xueluo and Dongqingmei met two elderly people who were no longer able to walk, and they were pushed here by their families in wheelchairs. What is the reason why they have to go to the U.S. Army Memorial Cemetery at such an advanced age?

Xueluo must have been a veteran who participated in the Normandy landings. Xueluo tried to guess the mood of the two old men, it was here seventy years ago, they and their comrades-in-arms fought bloodily in the smoke of gunpowder, the Ohama beach that was red by the blood of their comrades-in-arms is now a blue sky, white clouds and green grass like a blanket, and the comrades-in-arms who died by their side back then.

But they are buried forever under the land of a foreign land, and he will soon follow them to heaven. Sighing and emotional, but calm and calm. On the green lawn of the cemetery, white crosses are neatly arranged, and the tombstones are engraved with the names, numbers, ranks, hometowns and dates of death of the fallen soldiers. Suddenly, a dead soldier whose identity could not be verified was seen.

His tombstone reads. Xueluo saw a very good translation: "The bones are buried in the glory of the soldiers, and only God knows their names." "How many parents' sons, wives' husbands, and children's fathers gave their lives here on the beaches of Normandy, and the life of this unsung hero was forever annihilated in that smoke, and I don't know what his name was.

Where did it come from, leaving only the glory of his life to be buried here. At that time, the snow fell and stood in front of the tombstone, the breeze was gentle and the sun was warm, and I thought of the land under my feet, when the corpses were strewn all over the field and the blood flowed like a river, and my heart was shocked. The Etreta car drove into the small town of Étreta, where layers of houses blocked the coastline and fat seagulls flew through the air.

The chirps are a reminder of the snow and the beauty of winter, from the bloody war beach to a romantic and amorous seaside town. Xueluo and Dongqingmei found the hotel and parked their cars on the side of the road. It's a very old town, and it feels like everything is still the same as it was years ago, except for the public facilities.

Xueluo and Dong Qingmei lived on the fourth floor of a detective hotel, there was no elevator, and it was obviously impossible for one person to take a box of more than 20 kilograms, so they squatted on the side of the road and opened the box to take out the items they wanted to use, and ran back and forth several times. The hotel is in the center of the town, close to the beach.

Interestingly, the boss is a detective fan. Each room pays homage to a famous detective, and the room has no house number, just a picture of the detective hanging with the detective's name written on the door key. But not everyone knows all the detectives, so the boss gave Xueluo and Dongqingmei a hint, "The room where Xueluo and Dongqingmei live."

The detective has a mustache". Xueluo and the two went up to the fourth floor to see that there were two detectives with mustaches, so they had to try both rooms. The hotel that gives clues to find the room is worthy of being a detective hotel. At the end, the boss said, "There's a secret passage in your room." "The room was not a big size.

The furniture has obvious signs of years of use, slightly old, and the window looks out of the window at the Etelle Tower in the sunset. Xueluo looked around and found a serious problem, there seems to be no bathroom in the room? Don't worry, didn't the boss say that there is a secret passage, it turns out that the trench coat hung in the round mirror is the door of the bathroom, and it is really not easy to see the scene.

Does anyone know this detective? I slept with him all night and didn't know who he was. Walking to the sea, nature has carved out the cliffs like elephant trunks, one of the most famous spots on the northern coastline of France. Wrap up your coat and scarf in the bitter cold wind, walk on the pebble sand, and can't help but imagine people soaking up the sun on the beaches of southern France.

When you come to the cliff on the top of the hill where the church is located, you can see the whole town surrounded by a gentle bend of the coastline, and an orange-billed seagull sits on the edge of the cliff with the snowfall, listening to the sound of the waves advancing layer by layer, and is willing to be affected by this cold wind. There are three elephant trunk arches, like a family of three, playing in the water on this shore.
