Amboise sits on the Loire.
The Eglise St. Denis sits on a hill west of town and dates from the 12th century.
On a hill to the east of town is the Amboise Chateau. God on 1 hill and king on the other.
Rue Nationale through the center of town is pedestrian only.
The Tour de l'Horlage (Clock Tower) on the eastern edge of Rue Nationale is built into the 15th century town wall.
At the end of Rue Nationale, turn right on Rue Victor Hugo. You'll see the chateaux on your left. Rue Victor Hugo is lined with restaurants and leads to Clos Luce (Leonardo da Vinci's last residence), a must-see in town.
