Beaune has made it on the list of France’s Hot 100 of Beautiful Villages. It is medieval, cobble-stoned, heavily patisseried and shines with colourful geometric tiles on the church rooftops. The shops there also indicate that they attract a wealthy crowd of tourists, although it was relatively quiet when we popped in.
Vezelay is a medieval hilltop town with an impressive abbey at the end of a cobblestone climb up the main street. We enjoyed the late afternoon ambience of the town as the street lamps just started blinking and the sun spread its last rays across really old stonewalls. Well… the photos look okay. We also bought some delicious local honey made by sunflower bees.
