However, it is the rich history
and culture with the amount of places to visit that draws people to the Centre region for
a camping holiday in France, as you have chateaux like the renaissance Chateau de
Chambord, with its horse shows and sound and light shows. Other ideas include the
Vineyards and discovery routes with cellars for wine tasting, the Troglodyte villages and
cave dwellings, forests with nature trails and horse riding, traditional craft
demonstrations and workshops, medieval villages and much more.
