Chateau chantilly

As a French from the Loire Valley, iam really happy to see my region in this top! Castles, wine, cheese, traditional food, and a bike tour along the Loire...only a few hours in the south of Paris. As a local, yes, I totally recommend it!

Sorry : a few hours south after* Paris ;)

Mont Martre is a beautiful little town overlooking the whole city of Paris ( you can get the best pictures there too). It's known as an artsy town and hippie town where everyone there is pretty much an artist. They will do your portrait and a great one right on the spot for a great price. The shops are great there beautiful things. The food there is I felt the best I had in France. The atmosphere was super friendly. I highly recommend going to this little gem. If your into churches it boasts the oldest church all in France and its a beauty too .

France is on my bucket list.

Awesome
