Dijon, Burgandy, France


Dijon, Burgandy, France, originally uploaded by CarolinaRen.

Another official postcrossing card showing views from Dijon, which Mapquest tells me lies about 320 km southeast of Paris--about a three-hour drive. Sounds like a lovely city worth visiting: "Dijon [known for its mustard!] has one of the best preserved medieval centers in France. It is easy to walk and see the sites, with lots of pedestrian walking streets. You'll sample some of France's finest cuisine and drink great Burgundy wines at dinner or at one of the many wine bars in town. Dijon offers many cultural activities, including a wealth of museums and annual festivals to keep the tourist busy, including the L'Été Musical (Musical Summer), a classical music festival in June."

Maybe I can stop when I visit Chartres someday.... :)
