Typically the chef owns his or her own restaurant in France. Given the many choices, the local population goes to the better ones."

Book Synopsis Aquitaine, Bordeaux, Bayonne & France's Basque Country by : Kelby Carr
Download or read book Aquitaine, Bordeaux, Bayonne & France's Basque Country written by Kelby Carr and published by Hunter Publishing, Inc. This book was released on 2009 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A thoroughly detailed guide to this region of France, with full information on where to stay, how to get around, the history & culture, sights to see, and what to do. Following are a few excerpts from the guide. Some of Europe''s most beautiful cities, stunning beaches and serene, vineyard-dotted countryside are in the Aquitaine region, yet it remains underrated and undiscovered by most tourists. Bordeaux, an epicenter for wonderful wine, is an amazingly vast and entertaining city that is constantly abuzz. To the south lies the enchanting Basque Country, a region crossing into Spain whose borders are not official, but whose people are vehemently (and sometimes violently) proud and independent. Much of the Aquitaine region is a national park. Along the Pyrenees and the Spanish border are several quaint mountain and seaside villages, such as St-Jean-Pied-au-Port and Oloron-Sainte-Marie. Saint-Jean-de-Luz, practically kissing the Spanish border, is one of the prettiest small cities in all of France. The Aquitaine is a place to indulge, be it in wine, fabulous food, relaxing spa therapies, ocean breezes or incredible shopping. The outdoor adventures here are one of the main attractions. The Basque Country attracts visitors from around the globe for its year-round surfing. The national park, spanning a massive stretch of Atlantic coast, beckons those interested in watersports. The Pyrenees to the south of the region offer splendid hiking and skiing opportunities. Tip: To see Aquitaine arts and crafts in the creation stage, and to buy great locally-made wares, make stops along the Route des M(r)tiers d''Arts (contact the Association pour la Promotion des M(r)tiers d''Art d''Aquitaine, tel. 33-05-57-22-57-36, 353 Boulevard du Pr(r)sident Wilson in Bordeaux, www.route- metiers-d-art-aquitaine.com). They have maps and a book on various artists in the region. Popular in France since the 1960s, thalassotherapy means sea-water cure. It was discovered by a Tour de France cyclist healed from his injuries by seawater in his Brittany home. Today, there are numerous thalassotherapy treatment centers in the Aquitaine. Treatments are catered to each visitor, and can be used to address any number of ailments. Or just go for the sake of relaxation, a noble cause indeed. A new trend has been combining spa treatments with vinotherapy, or wine treatments. What could possibly be more indulgent, or uniquely French? Additionally, many of these treatment centers have their own upscale accommodations and gourmet restaurants (although most allow for booking of just therapies without overnight stays). Bordeaux is an absolute paradise for shopaholics and wine aficionados. Easily one of France''s most beautiful and interesting cities, Bordeaux''s pedestrian shopping zone is constantly filled with tourists and locals alike. As a hub of the Bordeaux wine-producing region, there are numerous shops selling high-quality wines at low prices. There are many tours to the area''s grandiose wine choteaux for tastings in stunning settings. The city''s shopping options are vast, ranging from small malls to tiny locally-owned boutiques.
Book Synopsis LOT VINEYARDS to TARN GORGES by : Walter Judson Moore
Download or read book LOT VINEYARDS to TARN GORGES written by Walter Judson Moore and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2020-12-21 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bicycle near the Lot Rivière and through the Tarn Gorges as they wind their serpentine journeys through the spectacular and historic settings of southwestern France. This book guides cyclists through an area that for 25,000 years has evolved a civilization based on community and family. The route maps and directions in this guide are as accurate and detailed as I found feasible. I prepared with the best sources I could find, then in 2010 I cycled the routes (occasionally walked a segment), took photos, made notes, discussed the routes with knowledgeable people and made corrections. A key objective is to avoid injury to a cyclist. Next, should your route include an unintended deviation, the map should have sufficient information to allow your return to the route.Then during the 2020 pandemic, I redrafted each route and charted the elevation profiles with more detail that became available in the intervening ten years. The object of this redrafting was to make the route easier to understand and to remove perceived ambiguities. All photos were re-edited from the original JPG files.Each route has some research notes (for a total of 53 in the guide) about the surroundings; some of these notes are historical, some geographical and some few about the nonhuman creatures you may sight along the way. Very little of this research replicates information in other guides.This guide spends little space on specific places to shelter for a night or a week. A bit more space is allowed for eating.As in my previous guides, I attempt to inform you about traveling to the area and what to expect when you arrive. Hopefully, this helps in your planning and reduces the stresses of travel to a different environment.Finally, well not quite, I try to have you understand the habits and customs in more depth. Should you have the opportunity to talk with a village senior you might learn that he or she was born in the same house that has been in the family for multiple generations. Does she know why she walks her children or grandchildren to school every morning and meets them in the afternoon? Did the grandfather speak Occitan? Who did they lose during World War II? Does the local bus service work as well as the long-defunct tram?In the guidebook's 127 pages, in addition to planning and introductory sections, eighteen routes are mapped in detailed color with elevation profiles and exacting turn-by-turn directions. There are 207 color photographs for visualizing surroundings.
