Château de Villandry is famed for its Renaissance gardens, especially the geometric hedges and water-themed parterres that form endless leading lines. Golden hour grazes the trimmed topiary, while overcast softens textures for crisp pattern shots. Open daily seasonally; arrive early for quieter paths.
