La Cité de Carcassonne from a distance by Beausoleil
The fortified city on a hill. This is one of the grandest sights in France. You can see it on the A61 as you zip by, but don't zip by, stop and enjoy a truly wonderful experience. Yes, it is crowded but it has always been crowded so your experience will be authentic.
