This bridge is truly magnificent. With a beautiful view of the city in the background! The best time to go is at sunset; it's breathtaking!

I love these little streets of Albi; they're peaceful, majestic, and steeped in history. The best way to experience them is on foot!

An unusual footbridge, quite pretty. It's a bit bumpy on a bike because of the metal bars they've put on the ground, but nothing too bothersome over such a short distance! It's worth a look!

I always find it difficult to know if a path is going to be pleasant or not, smooth or not. Well, this one is pretty smooth and fun, even though it is quite short (long paths are quite rare in this area).

Nice castle that I only saw from the outside but it was already not bad!

Coming to Albi without making a detour to the Sainte-Cécile cathedral is not possible. This religious building in red brick will amaze you as it is so imposing. For my part, it reminds me of an immense stone vessel. Faced with such majesty, you will understand why it has been classified with the episcopal city of Albi since July 31, 2010 on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The first cathedral dates back to the 4th century, but it was during the 13th century that it was profoundly modified by major works. Under the aegis of Sainte-Cécile, patron saint of musicians, take the time to visit this marvel. It is the most visited cathedral in France ahead of Notre-Dame de Paris.
