Cardinal Richelieu |
 |
Richelieu gifted many properties in this model town. Such gifts helped him curry favour and keep power. The town is laid out in a grid surrounded by walls, with a couple of plas for community use of course. |

The gates to Cardinal Richelieu's estate. His chateau is no more. |

Not a bad camp site. |

Every door gives a peek at the life hidden within. This one has many generations of stories |

Chin chateau. We camped up behind it. |
