Driveway (ThursdayTreeLove)

Here is the beautiful driveway at the Chateau Chenonceau in France. 

Lined by Plane trees, a walk on this road evokes a surreal feeling. 

Plane trees or Sycamore belong to the Platanus genus of Plantanaceae family. It has beautiful lobed leaves and the remarkable trunk is patchy, peeling and in shades of green, yellow, grey and white.

This walkway, the gardens and hearing stories of the Chateau (of Catherine de Medici, Diane de Poitier and others) indeed left a strong impression on me. 

I am joining Parul in her ThursdayTreeLove bloghop. Do head over to see fantastic trees from around the world. Better still, join in!

This is gorgeous. I loved this and I feel a strong yearn to see this in person someday. Thanks much for joining Archana. I got caught up last week so trying to do some magic here and going live soon!
