Re: 5 days in Toulouse Posted: Tue July 24, 2007 02:16 PM UTC
Toulouse is a great city to walk around. So take your time to visit the churches ( St Sernin, Les Jacobins) and the ruelles around the old town...You can walk around the river ( La Garonne) where there is a nice promenade.
If you want to go outside the city, you should go to Carcassonne ( 70km) which is one of the biggest medieval cities in Europe, or you can go to Albi ( Museum of Toulouse Lautrec and visit the church which is a Uniesco site) from Albi you can go by bus to a beautiful small town called Cordes Sur Ciel and its a Must see!
Toulouse is full of restaurants, just go around La Place de La Daurade, or Rue Mage, and you'll find great food for great value!
If you like museums, you shold vist Les Agustins, a beautiful museum or the Capitol ( city hall) where you can just go upstairs and visit the place ( free of charge) and there are bautiful paintings!
If you want smth different, you can go to the pyrinees and head to Foix ( 70km) and there are nice walks near the mountains.
Enjoy
