You arrive before dawn on a coach that hums along the French countryside; fields slide past like pages in a history book and the rising light picks out the crenellations of reconstructed ramparts. At Le Puy du Fou the air carries the scent of wood smoke and hay, and the grounds feel less like a theme park and more like a living stage where time keeps marching through carefully staged scenes.
