We love Dijon. Definitely need another visit, and recommend to all. A good way to start July!
As usual, we start the day with pastries, but what is this!? Stop the presses - everything you thought you knew about good and bad fats was apparently wrong! You can put down the fish oil and grab a warm croissant instead.
Along the way, we see many fancy chateau hidden behind gates and trees. The houses of Burgundian wine magnates, we assume. Villa envy returns.
And more of those colorful tile roofs
We love Dijon. It feels so lively and bustling. We spend most of the day just wandering around gawking at the street life.
And shopping from fancy to humble.
Architecturally, we seem to be creeping closer to Bavaria!
Really old beam
Grand buildings of many styles
With lots and lots of whimsical detail
Several great churches - this is Notre Dame with 30 gargoyles on the front and a performing bell tower.
