West of France is turned towards the Atlantic Coast.In the north Normandy & Brittany have rolling hills,sandy beaches and quiet little harbour towns.Normandy & Brittany have a more rugged coast and many neolithic sites.It has quite a distinct atmosphere from the rest of the country; you can still sense the Celtic origin of the region and its inhabitants.
The eastern part of France consists of the Alsace,Lorraine,Franche Comt?and Burgundy regions.The landscape has rolling hills and many beautiful cities,such as Metz,Strasbourg,Nancy and Dijon.This region produces many famous wines,including magnificent pinot noirs and chardonnays valued the world over,as well as the famous "Yellow wine" from the Jura mountain vineyard.
The Center of France is in many ways the most quiet part of France.But the great treasure of this region is the Loire valley ,with many great castles and beautiful towns.Chartres with its famous cathedral and Tours rate among the most beautiful French cities.
The Alps are great for skiing in winter and hiking in summer.Albertville,Grenoble and Chamonix have all hosted the Olympic games.But the Alps also have nice towns to visit,such as Chamb閞y,Annecy or Grenoble .
The South with its lovely nature,good food,roman ruins and of course the Riviera draws a lot of visitors every year.Towns like Orange,and Arles but also big cities like Marseille and Toulon are must sees.The Provence is dotted with pleasant small villages.In the South west of France the Dordogne is one of the most quintessential French regions.The valley is so pretty,the towns are so cute and the food is so good,that it is hard to believe that the people who live here go somewhere else for their holidays.The Languedoc has its own language and culture.In the south of the Languedoc you find the Pyrenees,a great mountain range separating France from Spain,where you can hike and ski.The towns of Toulouse and Montpellier are nice and the medieval town of Carcassone is a top destination.
美食French Food
French cuisine is extremely diverse,with only the Chinese having similar variety in their food.This variety is supported by the French passion for good food in all its forms,France's extraordinary range of different geographies and climates which support the local production of all types of ingredients,and France's long and varied history.In many ways,an understanding of the culture of French food is an understanding of France itself.
Meals range from the very basic,such as the traditional baguette plus cheese plus inexpensive wine,to very elaborate affairs than can involve a dozen courses and different wines consumed over several hours.Obviously,the latter type of dining is exceptional for most people.However,it is this more sophisticated dining which is typically found in "French restaurants" outside France,giving many foreigners the mistaken impression that French food is heavy and complicated.In fact,much of the French cuisine is fairly simple,relying on high quality fresh ingredients and loving preparation rather than complex recipes.
It is common in much of France to take a two hour break for lunch,with many working parents (particularly in villages and smaller towns) returning home for lunch.In some areas,mainly in the south of France,even longer lunch breaks are taken.Due to the long lunch break,businesses which close for this period typically reopen around 2PM or so and then stay open until about 7PM.
