Carcassonne
The Cité de Carcassonne has existed for two thousand years; it was in very poor condition before the restoration work by Viollet-le-Duc in the 19th century. Another improvement in Carcassonne since then? Transport! Now it's easy to get there, nothing is faster or more convenient than heading to Carcassonne with Tictactrip at a tiny price.
The Pont-Vieux in Carcassonne is reserved for pedestrians, perfect for a quiet stroll. It's a lovely medieval bridge!
To visit the old town, go through the Porte Narbonnaise, built around 1280!

First of all, you must visit the unmissable Cité de Carcassonne. You've probably seen it in many photos, but nothing beats seeing it with your own eyes: it's simply splendid!
Originally it was a fortified oppidum (a fortress in Roman times), but it changed hands many times over the centuries. The Cité was important during the feudal and royal eras, but it was left abandoned during the 17th century. Much later, under Napoleon III, the State funded a large part of its reconstruction... luckily!
But the Cité is far from the only thing to see in Carcassonne! This pretty town in Occitanie holds many wonders, such as the Pont-Vieux and the Porte Narbonnaise.
Strolling, eating... you can do everything you love while traveling here, because Carcassonne is old, beautiful and romantic!
