The charm of the old cobbled streets of P\u00e9rouges immediately suspends time. It must be said that the fairytale scenery is well maintained and even served as a backdrop for several films.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best is to get lost in this medieval maze and discover the remains by surprise. Then finally, to land in the heart of the village to taste the famous local sugar cake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2-Balazuc\"><\/span><strong>2.

Perched on its cliff, Balazuc proudly bears the traces of its rich medieval past. The encroached ramps finally lead to the ramparts of the castle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This village of character is also appreciated on the terrace of a caf\u00e9 or in the stalls with medieval ornaments. The Romanesque church of the twelfth century is a lively place from which you can admire an incredible panorama.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-Charroux\"><\/span><strong>3.

This former major crossroads of the Middle Ages amazes with its carved stone facades, half-timbered houses, and &#8220;Cour des Dames.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although entrenched behind its fortified gates, Charroux is greatly animated. At more than four hundred meters above sea level, the view of the Chain of Puys and the plain of Limagne is breathtaking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4-Vogue\"><\/span><strong>4.

Vog\u00fc\u00e9 turns his back on a cliff and borders the Ard\u00e8che River.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you arrive, the show is grandiose. With shimmering colors and capped in round tile roofs, this medieval village invites you to stroll. Let yourself be seduced by its castle, towers, and rue des Puces: the narrowest street in France. Suffice to say that the parenthesis is total and idyllic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5-Saint-Symphorien\"><\/span><strong>5.

At sunset, the view of this collegiate church with a martial look is breathtaking. The atypical architecture of Saint-Symphorien-Sur-Coise, its medieval fortifications, and its typical private corbelled buildings earned it a label.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also be lost with pleasure in the streets and let yourself be surprised, suddenly, by the half-timbered houses and Art Nouveau buildings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6-Tournemire\"><\/span><strong>6.

Here, chlorophyll gushes out in all directions. The village is wholly bathed in nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, Tournemire has other assets, such as its medieval fortress that still whispers the stories of the great battles. The village stretches along the main street, littered with coquettish squares. The beautiful houses sleep under lauze roofs and are adorned with small hanging and vegetable gardens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7-Yvoire\"><\/span><strong>7.

His nickname is not a usurpation. The medieval village enjoys an exceptional location, a Remarkable Garden, and fortifications erected in a unique setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Its castle, an unwavering symbol, watches over the encroached houses with pretty wooden balconies. This village to visit in Auvergne-Rh\u00f4ne Alpes offers a romantic atmosphere thanks to its flowery alleys. Imagine all this, dancing in a crystal-clear mountain lake&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8-Arlempdes\"><\/span><strong>8.

This jewel of heritage is distinguished by its Benedictine abbey erected in the Middle Ages and its Roman cloister tolerating time. On the banks of the Senouire River, this haven of peace offers spectacular paintings, especially when you come across its winegrowers&#8217; houses in golden stones and topped with round tiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You will also find many artisanal workshops and guardians of precious know-how.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"12-Oingt\"><\/span><strong>12.

Of its ferocious fortress, there remains only a door through which one still enters the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nevertheless, from the first steps into the village, time seems suspended. Historical monuments and ochre stone houses are eye-popping. Here, the cultivation of the vine is omnipresent: after all, we are in the Beaujolais.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"13-Lavoute-sur-Loire\"><\/span><strong>13.

It has preserved its ramparts and Renaissance mansions, all grouped on a rocky promontory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All around the Grand Place, the lava houses bear witness to the remains of yesteryear. They are adorned with turrets, anthracite conical roofs, and ornamented doors.
