Introduction

Villandry Castle is a castle that carries the history of the Renaissance period. It has six unique gardens and vegetable gardens that are eye-catching. The layout of each garden is carefully designed, and gardeners carefully trim different types of flowers and vegetables, presenting a unique picture. As the seasons change, flowers, fruits and vegetables are constantly replaced, making the scenery changeable and joyful. Especially, a boxwood hedge trimmed into musical notes, heart shapes, spirals, butterfly shapes, and fan shapes can attract tourists' attention. Each garden has a unique meaning, and the gardener will patiently introduce it to you. Some symbolize sweet love, some symbolize intense love, some symbolize indecisive love, and some symbolize painful love. The gardens in the castle are undoubtedly a three-dimensional picture full of art and vitality.
