France From Above HD - High Definition Views of the Chateaux de la Loire 

To bad for the high taxes.

@@Multerland What on earth are you talking about?

@@Multerland first of all, I'm not sure where you're getting your history but chateaux and castles had been built in France and Europe since the middle age. Colonislisn didn't start until the 19th century. This idea of France and Europeans that built their wealth on colonialism is utter b$#lsh$t. Colonialism cost far more to France than it profited it. As far as Congo genocide, are you gonna blame Europeans? Is there anything bad that happens in Africa that Africans can't control? Central Africa is horrible not because of colonialism, it's terrible because of human tribal nature.

Near 60 years after the independence, look properly at what all those African countries have done of their country; nothing. Most of them are eaten away by corruption. So stop complaining. You have had 60 years to reconquer your own culture and you African have done NOTHING!

@Piatequila pas tout à fait...er ce n est pas la majorité il ne faut exagérer...mais peu importe cela contribue à préserver un immense patrimoine ...par contre le peuple de France n est pas tout à fait comme il était c est un fait. Ici je voulais souligner ce que fut la civilisation Française. C est tout. Toute l Europe est riche de patrimoine d histoire.

For exterior I prefer French, especially the royal house style, but for interiors, I prefer the English. I like combining both for decor.

I can't seem to pick. I find architecture in every country to be beautiful in their own way. XD

Meyer Mica haha what a joke

Meyer Mica because uk isn’t like france, france is 1000 time better

@Meyer Mica Indeed, the whole country is a shadow... Too grey and gloomy for me. Can you really compare UK to French Riviera, Provence, Corsica, French Alps, Alsace, Loire Valley, Paris ?

Merci beaucoup :-*

bof ^^

Merci.

Merciii

Come on we are waiting for you ! :D

Covid has put that idea to rest.

I'm also currently unable to leave my house due to a severe skin condition, I had to cancel my most recent vacation because of it. I hope you're doing well and hope you keep your spirits up.

Kat Khan Thank you Kat for your good wishes, very much appreciated. Things are improving and I am hoping to be taken to France in July for a short holiday- health permitting. I hope your condition is getting better and you are able to travel. Best wishes PB.

Kat Khan got

Peter Bollard it's wonderful that you got a chance to visit these wonderful chateaus from many the only opportunity they get to see these are on television or social media such as RU-vid

Hope you all get well soon, and can enjoy the things you love.

If France is at the pinnacle, Italy is at the heaven

@@Gabneo1 No.

@@iappreciatethat7184 the speech would be long, because I, being Italian, would obviously be biased. France is beautiful, I have visited it 3 times and the last time for 1 month far and wide. But the density and intensity of Italy's artistic and natural beauties are in my opinion unsurpassed. An objective data is that of Unesco sites ... beyond the absolute number (2-3 more for Italy) and the number of Unesco sites per km² (1 every 5,000 km² for Italy, 1 every 12,000 km² for France, being the much larger French territory) .... the biggest difference I found between Italy and France is that in the same area to visit one beautiful place after another I always had to travel several kilometers. In Italy in any region even within a radius of only 20 km you have to make choices, to visit some places rather than others. Even the smallest villages and hamlets that are jewels in Italy are infinite everywhere, in France much less widespread everywhere. And the beaches, as beautiful as the Breton or the Cote d'Azur ones, and some Corsican beaches, are not comparable to the beauty with turquoise and crystalline waters of those of all southern Italy and Sardinia.

@@Gabneo1 I'm going to answer with one word: diversity. In Italy, you have one or two types of climate and one or two types of architecture (I'm being oversimplistic on here, but you are getting the idea). In France, you will find 15. You can find a bit of Italy, Spain, Germany, England or Ireland in France. You will find cold weather, warm weather, cristaline water, grey water, black soil, grey soil, orange soil, etc, etc, etc. You will find plains, mountains, plateaus, deserts, rivers, etc. You will find overly dense cities, big towns, small villages. You will find architectures from every types of eras and every types of culture. It's not even close, France is far more beautiful because France is in the middle of Europe and was always a crossroad for all types of culture. Italy is still beautiful though. But there is a bit of Italy in France, you can't deny that.

@@iappreciatethat7184 yes, i can ... of course i can deny that bcs it seems you're talking about Italy in comparison of France, exactly the opposite of what you meant. 2 types of architecture in Italy, are you serious ? Phoenicians, Etruscans, Greek, doric, Romans, Arabs, Normans, Spanish, romanic, medieval, corinthias, bizanthine, renaissance, barocco, gothic, neoclassic, rationalist, modern ... but you make me believe you don't know Italy at all ! Many of these types were born in Italy ! Ask to a friend of yours who's an architect, if you don't believe me. And the climate, are you serious ? Think about position of Italy in the map .... it is narrow and long from the Alps to almost Africa, therefore from a very cold north for most of the year (and also with the glaciers on the Alps, which among other things are also the most beautiful in the world with the Italian Dolomites ) the further south you go, the more the climate changes gradually, even in the same season, much more than in France, up to the very mild climate all year round along the southern coast of Sicily.

Tourism in France is one of the richest and most prosperous economic sectors. France is visited by 85 million foreign tourists a year, making it the most popular tourist destination in the world; however, it is only in third place, and not in first place, in the income produced by tourism due to shorter visits and overnight stays which drop to 137 million, placing France in fifth place of the countries most visited by non-residents, behind the States United, Spain, Italy, the United Kingdom and China. In short, for many tourists France is more of passage. More than 20% of tourists have in fact spent less than half of what they did in the United States of America

C'est à nous mais c'est à vous aussi. On partage le même sang.

Québec libre !

I went there less than a year ago, and I was surprised how it changed: the interior (which was its weakness) was improved and in the court they added a formal garden. Really, the experience was improved.

this is a horrible display of white supremacy. this is all stolen from africa, and you should be ashamed to watch these type of videos. you should ask yourself what do you do to support the BLM movement and how do YOU fight white supremacy? why don't we have more videos about the wonderful african culture ? or pakistani culture ? aren;t you ashamed one bit ? i am an european of pakistani descent myself and i am sick of all these "white this and white that" videos, and i would like to see more videos about pakistan, why aren't there videos about my heritage on youtube ? stop this display and promotion of white supremacy ! we should all dislike this video.

so we start repeating right after me...bonjour de france

@@banditop276 Okay. Bonjour de france.

@@gaslitworldf.melissab2897 We give citizenship to people that don't give a shit about french culture and just want to benefit from our generous social system so i guess you have all rights to apply

North of France is the shitty place of France, South is better, especially South West. I said that, but its absolutely not related to the fact that I live in the South West of France. But the fact about North of France being shitty is true tho, the weather is very bad and even if there is some beautiful place, most of North France have the remain of the 19th century industrialization with plenty of ugly building from that time. While South and Center of France is way more rural, wealthier and the weather is way better. There is way more castle and cozy village here. Plus we made wine in that part, so its great.

@@mrsupremegascon ouais.. si le sud est beau c est peut etre aussi grace aux richesses du nord aux 19 et 20 siecles, industries, mines ,sidérurgie etc.. sacrifices des hommes sans parler des destructions des guerres que le sud n a pas connu donc abstient toi de parler de pays merdique !!!

Totally Right, but you could have added the fact that Henri II Plantagenêt was twice the vassal of the french King was actually one of the main reasons of the hundred years war between French and English "French", sort of civil war which wasn't given its name. The other reason was that the french king died without a direct descendance and then the french king of England claim the french crown... I wonder what would have happened if both kingdoms had isntantly been united instead of doing a harsh and incredibly long war.

@@jpc7118 Yes but my comment was just about the error in the video calling Henry II "King of Anjou". It would be far too long to talk about Anglo French tumultuous relationships... ;-)

@@MajorDenisBloodnok I had understood mate... I haven't just resisted to the envy to precise it ;)

yeah. but today it will be almost impossible to us simple guys. only the rich will be able to go abroad.

@Meyer Mica like anywhere we got the American influence of fast foods, though you can find good food almost anywhere in France. From more rural meals to the fancier ones

@Meyer Mica as we say in french "les goûts et les couleurs.... "

@Meyer Mica though rural french food is definitely not about eye catching! What meal are you thinking about?

Maybe the most beautiful country in Europe.

I am sorry to disappoint but even though Clovis died thousand years ago the french civilization is still well alive.

He was indeed born in actual France, in Le Mans

Like the old house of william the conquerer and the angevin house.

@@maximeperez-raymond3346 Guillaume le Conquérant... puisqu'il était vassal du Roi de France, bien avant d'être roi d'Angleterre et avant son expédition anglaise ;)

Henri the second was a member of the plantagenet house, which was from Anjou. The plantagenet house was the second "french" house to rule england after the norman one. But at this time France didnt exist in its current shape and Anjou was a possesion of the english crown, so Henri II was at the same time vassal of the king of France Phillipe August and king of england. Henri II was educated in French, and even the english nobility was at time time, French was a really prestigious language that's why it was the language of the nobility. What is important to understand is that the cultural border was pretty much non existent betweem england and France, and even today british monarqs still speak french.
