The Da Vinci French Connection Amusement Park

Da Vinci: the amusement park -
Europe, World - The Independent
: "Other than the presence in the Louvre of two of the three paintings that crossed the Alps by mule – including, of course, the Mona Lisa – Leonardo's French connection is now relatively little remembered outside France. Over the next few years, starting this spring, the Chateau du Clos Luce in the beautiful town of Amboise on the banks of the Loire, plans to change all that. The building where Leonardo lived for three years before his death has already reinvented itself as a Da Vinci museum and visitor centre. It now has ambitious plans to become the world's first 'intellectual and cultural theme park'."
