Puy du Fou
Puy du Fou is a historical themepark in western France,
attracting over 1.5 million visitors a year, making it the second
most popular paid attraction in the country. The experience is akin
to being on a giant interactive movie set as different historical
scenes are played out with considerable exuberance by a large a
cast of actors against very realistic and impressive sets. There
are five thrilling attractions, or perhaps more accurately,
performances, including The Vikings and Richelieu's Musketeers,
each lasting around 40 minutes.
In the evening during peak season, the Cinescene historical
extravaganza is held on reputedly the largest stage in the world,
with over 1,000 actors, hundreds of horses and great volleys of
fireworks. The children especially will be spellbound. The park is
set in gorgeous woodlands, and has 25 restaurants, 3 hotels and
plenty of other amenities to ensure a comfortable visit.
Performances are in French so English-language translation headsets
should be reserved in advance if required.
