Making a stop in the village of Chablis to discover their famous Bourgogne Chablis wines is highly recommended. So beautiful...It's a definite "must see!"
Make another stop in the city of Dijon, because:
In Roman times it was the major crossroad between northern Europe and the Mediterranean. It was here in the 14th century that the Valois Dukes of Burgundy founded one of the most brilliant courts in Europe. Dijon then became the seat of the Order of the Golden Fleece.
From the Renaissance forward the townhouses of the Nobles of the Robe reshaped this “city of a hundred towers”. Dijon's pedestrian streets wind between medieval houses, churches and Renaissance townhouses. The Place de la Libération, created by Hardouin-Mansart, is one of the loveliest squares in France. In summer its sunny café terraces are a perfect place to take an inner-city break....
