What people are saying:
It's probably less of a European building, and it's incredible to see such a beautiful castle once in a while.

Well worth the trip. Amazing to think this was built so long ago. The architecture and ramparts are beautiful. The access was free and you can pretty much walk around everywhere.

The Castle of the Dukes of Brittany is the last castle before the Loire River was integrated into the Atlantic Ocean. I personally think that it is very proud to hang the last two words, such as the last virgin in the world. The castle was built by the father of the father of Brittany, Franois II, and his daughter Anna Brittany at the end of the Middle Ages. When I entered in the evening, the light in the castle was very weak, and the red light flashed from time to time. Then I am from the East, not so afraid of the Western vampires, I am subconsciously still clinging to the garlic in my hands. The last two pictures want to express, if under the weak ambient light, how can the face of the character be brightened? This is the rhythm of a group of people holding a mobile phone flashlight.

Nantes is a beautiful and peaceful city in western France. The pace of life here is not as fast as that of Paris, but the people here are very happy. Whether it is a student or an office worker, or an old man or a child, they often have a smile on their faces and know how to enjoy life. The city centre of Nantes is still bustling, with restaurants and shops, and many attractions, the castle of the Duke of Brittany, Nantes Cathedral, Plantes Garden, etc., usually take the tram on Line 2 on weekends, you can go shopping ~ possible The only downside for Chinese students is that there is no authentic Chinese restaurant.

It's probably less of a European building, and it's incredible to see such a beautiful castle once in a while.
Castle of the Dukes of Brienne 🏯. Although Nantes is a medium-sized city in France, it feels relatively quiet and there are not many people, but the urban area is also the best, especially the area near the castle. The castle is free, and the moat has dried up, leaving only grass and mice. The ancient stone wall has witnessed the vicissitudes of history. After shopping, you can go to the side to order a steak and a glass of beer 🍺 about 20 euros, the price/performance ratio is much better than Paris.
There are no tickets here, the scenery is very good, so the price is very high. The castle is a big place, and it's in the downtown area. Once you get out of the castle, you can visit many bustling streets. It is very convenient for eating and shopping!
The castle is in the center of the city, a place like the church, the city hall and so on. The long stone wall and the half-dry exposed moat give the building a strong sense of vicissitudes. Climb up the city wall and have a panoramic view. There is a food street behind, sit down and order a steak➕beer, which is cool!
The castle has always been very historical, and it is also a good place to visit in Nantes, France. This royal castle is a castle of the Duke of Brittany. The core is also quite large. The castle is also very interesting, very fun A building.
