Description
Behold! ..Carcassonne..! as seen here when approaching from the Pyrenees mountains, north of Spain. Imagine the wonder, centuries ago, of people traveling by foot or donkey, and coming upon this impressive vista. Today, it still takes one's breath away.. with it's 52 Towers!
It was once a Roman fort before the birth of Christ. And a couple of centuries ago, it was almost dismembered to build a newer town just below, across the river! Today it holds the title of "Europe's oldest, functioning, medieval city!"
The double-walled protection surrounding the city, castle, cathedral, cafes, houses & shops ...extends over 2 kilometers. And it is now France's second most visited tour destination.
For you Wine Lovers.. It sits, proudly surrounded by the 5 major distinct wine growing areas of the Pays d'oc..the Languedoc ..the Worlds Largest wine producing area.. Salut!
Merci Encore!
