<div class="text-justify">Hello world travelers:
<p><br />France is full of history for hundreds of centuries. We only have to give ourselves the opportunity to visit places other than Paris, its capital.</p>
<p>On this occasion I would like to present my tour of Amboise Castle. But first I'm going to locate them.</p>
<p>Amboise is a medieval-style city. It is located in the Centre-Valley de Loire in the central region of France. I would say that territorially it is in the heart of France.</p>
<p>The city of Amboise is very beautiful. Its narrow streets and many of its houses are timbered on their facades. The Clock Tower is very famous and very visited especially in summer by Italians. During its construction, in the 15th century, it was the main entrance to Amboise.</p>

<p>My main tour was at the Amboise Castle because I wanted to visit the place where the remains of the great artist Leonardo Da Vinci lay.</p>
<p>The Castle is small in relation to others, so you can do the tour in only 1 hour and a half. From the Tower of the Minimes you can get a fabulous view of the city and the Loire River.</p>

<div class="text-justify">As I was anxious I went to the Chapel of St. Umberto where the tomb of Leonardo Da Vinci is located.</div>

</div>
<p>On the inscription it says:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Leonardo Da Vinci</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p>Born in Vinci of Florence on April 14, 1452, he spent the last three years of his life in Amboise, at the manor of Clos Luce on the invitation of King Francis I.</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p>He died there on May 2, 1519 and was buried at his request in the castle, in the collegiate church of St. Florentine, which was destroyed in 1807.</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p>His presumed remains found during the excavations carried out in 1863 were transferred to this chapel.</p>
</blockquote>

<div class="text-justify">A very particular detail is the palm roof with the Royal coat of arms in the centre. Here I show a detail.</div>

<div class="text-justify">Each one of the rooms is very elegant and sober. They contain tapestries, beds, tables and chairs that can be placed between the 15th, 16th and 17th century. But the most spectacular thing is its landscaped gardens. If you have time, spend at least half an hour in the gardens. </div>

<div class="text-justify">In the previous photograph, which is more or less in the lower part of the garden, there is a bust dedicated to Leonardo Da Vinci. It was the place where the Italian artist was initially buried.
<p><br />Then you have to enjoy all the gardens that form the great harmony of the Amboise Castle.</p>

<div class="text-justify">Finally, it is important to note that the closest parking lot to the Castle is located a 10 minute walk away. This is a very important prevision for those who travel with children and with elderly people.
<p><br />I honestly said that the walk and the landscape are worth it.</p>
