If you’re ready for another stunning UNESCO world heritage site, then this well preserved medieval village in the Ile-de-France region is perfect. Provins takes you back in time to an age of falcons, castles, and horse shows and offers views that you didn’t think were possible. An easy day trip, just 90 kilometres southeast of Paris, you can reach Provins on an hourly train which takes an hour and twenty minutes. There are over 58 ancient monuments to see in the city, and some of the major sites include 1.200 metres of 11th-century ramparts and fortified gates to walk around.
The medieval fortress of Tour Cesar, sat atop a hill can’t be missed and offers stunning views over the town. While there, make sure you catch the underground galleries dotted around the city for a snapshot of the Medieval art that is very much part of the city’s culture.
