Auxerre

Cities · 6/11/2010 · Original language: Russian

After reading glowing reviews about Auxerre, saying it is almost the most beautiful little town in France, we decided that we had to visit it too.

However, in reality things somehow didn’t go as planned. Apparently, we arrived at the wrong time. The streets really are very charming. The church is beautiful, and the town hall is not far behind. There are lots of people in the center. Everyone sits in the summer cafés, strolls around, and the streets are packed. But if you walk just a little way away from the center, there you are: deserted streets and the same beautiful houses — enjoy them as much as you like.

After wandering around a bit, we moved on, not especially impressed, alas....

We parked our plane on the other side of the river.

Auxerre

Cadet Rousselle in person. The hero of an old French song will help tourists not get lost in the city and not miss the most interesting sights. Such plaques are beautifully set into the sidewalks near landmarks. And on the little streets, arrows with numbers will help you not get lost.
