City-fortress Carcassonne

I suggest you take a fascinating inexpensive tour of the south of France, which is most convenient to visit, just from Andorra, because of the geographical proximity of the Principality to the great France.

You will visit the city-fortress - Carcassonne, and also pass through many small villages, towns, vineyards, shady roads with a magnificent surface, along which the trunks of plane trees are planted in slender rows, and their crowns close over the roadway. These two cities are located in a historic area called Languedoc. During the tour you will get acquainted with the legends and identity of this ancient land. Carcassonne is a medieval fortress city with a double ring of fortress walls, including 48 towers and 4 messs on the perimeter. Inside the perimeter of the fortress walls, not only narrow medieval streets with picturesque inhabited medieval buildings, but also the Cathedral of Saints Nazarius and Kelsia (11-14 centuries), the feudal castle-museum of the Trancavel dynasty, the Inquisition Museum, a mansion with ghosts. You can sit in cozy cafes and restaurants, enjoy local French cuisine and real French wine, as well as visit souvenir shops, walk along the fortress walls, look into the Narbon watchtowers. Everything here is covered with a mysterious and very ancient history. The fortress city of Carcassonne is listed by UNESCO as part of the World Heritage of Humanity and is the largest fortress city in France.
