However, the local French people or the whole Europeans know about this place, which attracts many Europeans to come here to learn and visit. This place mainly shows that when Europe was in the Dark Age 1,000 years ago, many scientists and architects studied and restored how humans built such a solid and huge castle with their bare hands 1,000 years ago, and how various details such as windows and toilets were built. Some of the participating builders are professionals and some are amateurs (without salary), and they will come here to participate in the entire "handmade" construction process. Many people are experts and technicians from Guédelon in the reconstruction work after the fire of Notre Dame de Paris. Since this place completely restores the ancient scenes 1,000 years ago, there is no paving of floor tiles, only the original land. If you have friends who are interested in going, don't go on rainy days, your shoes and pants will definitely be ruined. The ticket is very reasonable, 16 euros per person. Today, April 12, the weather is mild and I entered the park at 1 pm. There are already a lot of people. There are buses from various European countries. Lunch here can be booked in advance and you can camp in the park after taking it away. After we walked around for 2 hours, we wanted to "escape" early because it might rain. Overall, it depends on whether you are interested in the hand-built technology and the restoration of history from 1,000 years ago. If you only want to see the castle, I suggest you don't come here. There are many more beautiful castles with real historical backgrounds in France.”
