Winelands.
Bordeaux.
Since ancient times, the vine has shaped the landscape of Gironde, according to
the nature of its soil: gravel, limestone or clay. Brought along the ocean, it
gained the banks and hillsides of the estuary, and then those of the Garonne and
Dordogne rivers. Here, right at the edge, people settled through the centuries.
At Pauillac,
they built houses of light-coloured stone to live in; at Blaye and Saint-Emilion
a citadel and a fort to protect themselves; everywhere, from Médoc to Entre-Deux-Mers,
châteaux and cellars for wine-making; and finally at Bordeaux, an illustrious
city where they could trade and surround themselves with culture. Provence.
In Provence, nature and man have shaped magnificent landscapes and deep traditions.
Here, 6 centuries before Jesus Christ, the Greeks planted the first vineyard in
France, introducing the art of wine. Today, the red, rosé and white wines of Provence
that have inherited this tradition are grown in this Mediterranean soil, as strong
and robust as the wine-growers themselves. A land full of discoveries for lovers
of the good life, the vineyards of Provence are rich in significant and important
sites. Appellations d'origine in Provence: Côtes de Provence, Coteaux d'Aix, Les
Baux, Coteaux Varois, Bandol, Palette, Cassis, Coteaux de Pierrevert and Bellet.
Loire
Valley. Connected by a majestic river, the vineyards of the Loire valley stretch
from Sancerre to the Atlantic. From east to west, Centre, the Tours region, Anjou,
the Saumur region and the Nantes region are the main appellation areas. The tourist
route around the vineyards of the Loire valley leads wine lovers and beginners
alike from cellars to vineyards, offering wine-related discoveries punctuated
by visits to imposing castles, abbeys, cave dwellings and gardens along the Loire,
now classed as part of the world heritage of mankind by Unesco (from Sully-sur-Loire
to Chalonnes-sur-Loire). Spiritual
Journeys to Lourdes.
In the heart of the Pyrenees, Lourdes receives more than 5 million visitors from
all over the world every year. Spirituality, whether belonging to history, is
part of the present through the depth and beauty of the sight, the marks of the
past, the serenity of the Sanctuaries. Lourdes was just a small market town on
the 11 February, when Bernadette Soubirous met, along the Gave, the “Lady” that
made the town a Marian city. Today Lourdes has the second greatest number of hotels
in France with 230 establishments. Its geographical position, at the foot of the
mountains makes it an ideal starting-point of excursions to the Pyrenees. search
