This Unesco World Heritage site, located Southeast of Paris, was considered by Napoleon as the true home of French kings. Indeed, our monarchs used this place for 800 years as their hunting grounds. It was then embellished by king François Ier with an Italian Renaissance decor. Napoleon occupied the palace and left a throne room, the only one in France to retain its original furniture. Close to another marvel, chateau de Vaux-le-Vicomte, enjoy a whole day visiting both places at once.
