See my city

Hello everybody ? Here’s some photos of my beautiful city in the center of France named Bourges. Is a really old, medieval, royal city, first capital of France in the middle ages with a royal cathedral, the castle of Jacques-Coeur etc.

Bonjour @Theofania

Merci pour ton partage, tes photos sont superbes!

Merci aussi pour tes explications, je ne connais pas bien Bourges et je ne savais pas que ce fut la première capital de France!

Alors, oui je valide aussi, ne t’arrête pas en si bon chemin et continue de partager avec nous ta culture, tes découvertes.

Au plaisir de te lire,

Julien

Good morning @Austinelewex . Thank you so much for liking my post. Most of the buildings yes but some are more modern. Generally is an old royal medieval town with many modern touches and a nice rythm of living. :blush:

Hi @Theofania ,

Beautiful photographs! I’ve never been to Bourges before. I think France has many beautiful cities to offer and I haven’t been everywhere yet.

My most favorite part so far has been the French Riviera, have you checked my post 5 stunning summer spots in the South of France . I love old towns and each city I visited had wonderful old towns with amazing streets.

Have you ever been there? :slightly_smiling_face:

Good morning @DanniS I’ve traveled almost everywhere in France. French Riviera is beautiful (yes I have been there) but not THE most beautiful… you should visit BRETAGNE or STRASBOURG… NORMANDY too… LYON or BORDEAUX… GORGEOUS just amazing. You are gonna love those places if you liked south. :star_struck: :purple_heart:

I agree. There is more to see. I’d love to visit the west part of France and those cities. My parents have been to Bordeaux and they loved it. I have to plan a new trip to France during the summer so I can see those cities.

Merci! :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi @Theofania

Great report with beautiful pictures.

This city is typical of historic France.
I like to watch the Tour de France for such beautiful places. (and also for Peter Sagan… :grinning: )

Great photographs and beautiful city too, @Theofania .

Looks like in movies with medieval setting.

But I don’t see any people there. Makes me curious, where are they?
