Description
An Autumn sunset from the vineyard makes the golden walls of Carcassonne stand out against a darkened background sky.. 2000 years ago it was a Roman fort. Today people from all over the world walk the ancient stone streets to experience the fascinating history of Visigoths, Charlemagne, the Trencavels and the sad but true story of the Cathars. Many also choose to walk the 2 kilometers of double-walls, or explore the enormous castle within...and it's Inquisition Tower.. (just steps from the Bishop's tower, two of 52 towers!)
Don't miss summer's jousting tournaments.. the museums, the wonderful cafe's, restaurants, and shops. In fact, you might want to stay a week..
Since 1998, it's been a World Heritage site that, as a tourism destination is only rivaled in France by the Eiffel Tower.
The 300 days of sun in the south of France makes this destination attractive as well.. please visit my photos of "The Canal du Midi" ..which is also a World Heritage site ..within walking distance of "La Cite".
Also, see my vineyard related photos that highlight the beauty of the Wine Country here in the South. These can be displayed in a home bar, restaurant, terrace, pool area, a den, or dining room/ kitchen.. Anywhere that people enjoy wine & the art of Wine Making!
