RE: Dordogne River Valley Series : Bourdeilles

in Pinmapple3 years ago

Hello Arni. Dordogne definitely looks like a romantic location to immerse oneself. An ideal place to unwind, relax and be away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Is the French architectural style a dominant feature in that village? Or are there other foreign design elements that joined the mix?

Hi Erne, I believe yes, the french architectural style in varying eras. In my opinion, it's mostly French. The only thing I noticed that was borrowed from the Italian renaissance is the balustrade behind the french manor overlooking the vegetable garden.

It's interesting to note that French Architecture varies as well from region to region but they're quite nationalistic (same with safeguarding the french language) so their own style is predominant everywhere.

I think when we go to Perigueux in my next post there might be some unusual styles that could be seen.
