Exploring the Gardens
In this second day, it was time to visit the beautiful and amazing gardens of the Rivau Castle! The 12 gardens of Rivau are designated a Jardin Remarquable . They are inspired by fairy tales and legends and take the visitors on a beautiful and fantastical journey. The Rivau fairytale gardens are also a treat for rose lovers and gardeners, as they display a collection of more than 300 roses from famous rose breeders such as André Eve or David Austin.
