Cité de Carcassonne

I've been fortunate to stay several times within the walls of this magnificent Gallo-Roman fortress while exploring the wine terroirs of the Languedoc. Carcassonne is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with a museum and tours, but it’s also a vibrant village, with bustling shops, cafés, and hotels. This drawing captures the magic of the ramparts at night, made from an image I snapped while walking back one evening from dinner.

What a beautiful vibe. I bet you had a magical time staying here. Now I've got to google and learn more about this area. Thanks Meg!

Thank you, Salli! The wines are wonderful, and don't miss the cassoulet!
