Picnic area at Port du Pavé du Roy on the Cher River

Highlight • Rest Area

Shaded picnic area with games for children. Located on the banks of the Cher, along the Loire by bike, it is often very busy on sunny days.

Picturesque, very beautiful in summer, a little less so in winter, there are several bars and a small open-air café, Grandma's Soup Kitchen, where you can enjoy some homemade crepes.

Opéra de Tours - Grand Théâtre

Highlight • Monument

The Grand Théâtre de Tours houses the Opéra de Tours and was built on the former church of the Cordeliers.

In 1796, the church was transformed into an 800-seat theatre. In 1867, the theater was bought by the municipality but in 1883, a fire destroyed a large part of the building (only the facade and the four walls remain). It was then rebuilt as you can see today.
