Poitiers
The University city of Poitiers is well worth a visit, with its gorgeous old cathedrals, bustling squares and medieval architecture, as well as a wonderful selection of bars, restaurants and shops – it’s a people watching paradise. You can also catch the TGV from here (Paris is a little over 1hr 30 minutes away!) You also can’t mention Poitiers, without mentioning Futuroscope. One of the world’s top rated parks, offering 25 attractions based on future technology, cinema, audio-visual and all things futuristic.
