The center of tourist Brittany, the small town of Vannes, attracts travelers with preserved monuments of architecture from the Middle Ages. And beautiful views of the Gulf of Morbigans, which is surrounded by small islands.
The city is clearly divided into the Old and New parts. The pedestrianized Old District consists of brightly colored Farhverk houses that date back to the XIV century. There are also ancient castles, towers and the medieval Saint-Vincent-Ferr gate, which is the clear boundary between the Old and New Town. Walking around the city in summer is a pleasure. You can hear the tunes of street musicians and occasionally the sounds of the majestic organ. In addition, all this is accompanied by the fragrance of hydrangeas in the surrounding gardens.
The local attractions can take a whole day to explore. The Promenade de la Rabin, which runs along one of the most beautiful promenades in the region, is worth the drive from the city port.
And how can you not pay attention to a trip to the beauty of the sea and not go to Monks Island, which is fragrant with palm trees. Or to the island of Gavrinis, which is popular for its prehistoric calamansi.
Vannes
Frozen in time
The French town of Vannes seems to have stepped off the pages of Dumas's novel. And it is not strange, because it is here that one of the Musketeers, Aramis, found his refuge after all his adventures and even became a bishop. The real atmosphere of the Middle Ages reigns in the Old Town, along the streets of which you can take a leisurely stroll. And just a little further away, the colorful promenade with stunning views of the coast is ablaze with bright lights.
