With 1,000 exotic free-roaming animals, this place is a visual delight. The African reserve wishes to house some of the world's most endangered species like some rare reptiles and a European river biotope of otters, frogs, salamanders and fish. The reserve focuses on 'inter activate' experiences with the animals. With 'The Talking Trees' english audio guide, train tours, giant spider web playground, Thoiry offers hours of happiness to all ages. The are over 10,000 flowering trees and shrubs that enthrall the Botanical Gardens with many new garden creations every year. The Thoiry castle is a unique monument of mysterious Renaissance architecture, built in 1559 by the architect, Philibert de L'Orme. Built to be a transparent bridge of light, the sun rises or sets in the Castle's central arch at the summer and winter solstices. Review © 2009, Wcities |
