The Château de Fontainebleau, located about 60 kilometers from Paris, is a jewel of French architecture and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Built in the 16th century, it was the favorite residence of many French kings and emperors. You can visit the magnificent state rooms, the richly decorated royal apartments and the formal gardens.

Fontainebleau Castle is underestimated and mostly outshined by Versailles. A trip worth it. If you still have bicycles with you can drive outside the castle and get a super view of the castle grounds. The first recordings have been made near the D137 road and the views of the castle grounds and garden are breathtaking. There are large lawn areas for a picnic.
