Often photography monuments are favorite subjects … They do not move, are massive, as they say imposes and seems to be the guarantee of a good photo … So we photographers, obviously we throw over . This week so I suggest you do the monuments the theme of this SL-WEEK 19 … Anything is possible as long as the scene is recognized as a historic site, this will be the only constraint. So I propose the Chantilly castle near Paris in France.

Chantilly is world famous for its castle, which houses within it the prestigious collections of the Musée Condé, and his famous whipped cream. It is also recognized internationally for its equestrian activities in addition to its racecourse, which take place two prestigious horse races in particular, the price of the Jockey Club and Prix de Diane, the city and its surroundings are home to the largest training center of France racehorse.
Closely linked to the family of Montmorency from the fifteenth to seventeenth century, then to the family of Condé from the seventeenth to the nineteenth century, Chantilly develops around its castle and its outbuildings. Long made several hamlets scattered around its castle, it became a parish in 1692 and planning only dates back to the eighteenth century. It becomes, in the early nineteenth century, a small pioneer industrial center, especially in the production of porcelain and lace, but also a privileged place for recreation and resort for the aristocracy and the arts, as well as place of residence an English community, then linked to the world of horses. Today the commune in the urban area of Paris, sees 40% of its labor force working in Île-de-France and shows no big business on its territory. With hundreds of thousands of tourists visiting its castle and park, as well as its living museum of the horse, with its millions of visitors to his forest, the city presents itself as one of the most attractive tourist centers of northern Paris.
