Châteauvillain (France)

Châteauvillain on a rainy day in December.

The charming beauty of the picturesque village of Châteauvillain doesn't fully reveal itself on a cold, rainy December day. The gray skies and constant drizzle dull the vibrant colors of the old stone houses and narrow streets. The typically serene ambiance is replaced with a quiet melancholy as rainwater trickles through the cobbled alleys. It’s hard to capture the village’s true character under such gloomy conditions. We’ll definitely need to return on a brighter day to experience Châteauvillain in all its glory, when the sun brings life back to its historic charm.
