Summary
Join Us in France Travel Podcast
Today we go visit the walled city of Carcassonne in the southwest of France. Carcassonne is the largest intact medieval walled city in France, and a UNESCO world heritage site.
It is a wonderful place to visit for people of all ages, but in particular children who have a vivid imagination will love the medieval and fort-like character of the place. It boasts some fine hotels and restaurants, but no matter your budget, this is a place where you will find many places to have a great meal and a great time.
