Chaumont Garden Festival 2010

The International Garden Festival was created in 1992 around Chaumont Castle on the side of the Loire river. 
Every year it offers an tribute to garden design with a new theme that changes each year. This years topic was "Body& Soul".






















The gardens are made by architects, designers or artists- often strange, entertaining, futuristic or really weird but nevertheless very inspiring. 
Trees are painted red, big pictures are hanging between them in the forrest, chairs are standing on top of a lake, a grand piano between an ocean of flowers while you listen to Jazz music...
Every garden is different, from very simple to absolutely incredible and unbelievable. It is worth going! And I will be back next year for sure.
