Things to do

If you're looking for a taste of the country life or a holiday by the sea, or if you would just like to vary your pleasure, each of the region's historic cities has much to offer, whether you choose to stay for a weekend, a week or longer. A wealth of monuments and excellent museums,  theatres and concert halls, fine public parks,  a wide choice of shops and markets, friendly bistros and brasseries with shaded terraces from which to watch the world go past, to say nothing of some of the best restaurants in France : time goes quickly for visitors of all ages and tastes.
