Beschreibung

France Tourist Region, Burgundy. A Guide. Burgundy has something for everyone, whether you are looking for a great conference venue or a family holiday, a lively city break or a relaxing stopover. Our way of life may reflect Burgundy rich history and heritage, but we also offer the very best in business facilities, contemporary culture, and dynamic events. Located between Paris to the north, the Riviera to the south, and the Alpine peaks to the east, Burgundy is an ideal place to stop over during a longer journey or to enjoy a short break in itself. The regional capital of Dijon once home to the powerful Dukes of Burgundy combines historical sites with a vibrant cafe society and some stunning contemporary art. But each town offers its own individual atmosphere. Enjoy the cultural attractions, restaurants and shops of Beaune and Macon, Nevers and Auxerre. Or relax with a spa treatment in the health resorts of Bourbon Lancy and Saint Honore les Bains And don't just book an overnight stay linger around for a while to discover our glorious countryside, peaceful waterways, and friendly people. There are no huge cities in Burgundy, just towns built on a human scale where the emphasis is on quality of life. Enthusiastic shoppers, habitues of cafe terraces, and lovers of shows or late night clubbing will find what they are looking for in Dijon, the capital of Burgundy.
