To travel to France is to discover the first tourist destination in the world. France owes this status to the multiple faces of its territory, history, cultural and architectural heritage and, of course, its gastronomy. Are you a history and heritage lover?
You will not know where to look because there are so many points of interest. The remnants of prehistory rub shoulders with ancient constructions from the Roman era or the countless castles and villages that will transport you to the Middle Ages or the Renaissance.
In the footsteps of the feudal lords or the Kings of France, you can visit pieces of heritage, some of which still contain their original furniture. Between ocean and mountain, in the heart of cities steeped in history or through bucolic countryside, soak up the art of French living. The Tour de France certainly contributes to the notoriety of France with bike tourists.
It allows you to discover the diversity of its landscapes and regions and is an invitation to follow in the footsteps of the riders but at a completely different pace. Along its important maritime facade, picture-perfect landscapes are available to the traveler, from the great beaches of the Atlantic coast to the cliffs of Normandy, passing by the coves of the Mediterranean.
