Stroll through its cobblestone streets, admire its private mansions, and don’t miss its famous market. Continue your journey along the Dordogne to admire villages classified among the “Most Beautiful Villages of France“: La Roque-Gageac with its troglodytic houses on the cliffside, Beynac-et-Cazenac dominated by its imposing castle, Les Eyzies: the world capital of prehistory, or Domme, a perched bastide offering a breathtaking panorama of the valley. A little further on, also discover Périgueux and its magnificent cathedral, Hautefort and its castle surrounded by 3 hectares of French gardens, or Vergt and its lively market hall. For more ideas, the Périgord Noir – Dordogne Valley tourist office website is a wealth of information.
