Weekend in Dordogne (En/Fr)

in Worldmappin24 days ago

The Dordogne department in France is located in the Périgord region, which is much sought-after by tourists for its authenticity and gentle way of life.

The English have known this for a long time, and many have settled in this region, which they call Dordogneshire.
In some villages, such as Eymet, you can almost hear more English spoken than French, and the waiter at the restaurant where we stopped was English, born here to English parents who had settled in the region.

The region has many assets, not least of which is its gastronomy, with geese and ducks available in foies gras, magrets and confits, accompanied by local fruit and vegetables.

There are also many medieval sites to visit, such as the Castle of Beynac and Cadouin Abbey.
It's worth noting that the chateaux are furnished, which adds a plus to the visit; I've visited empty chateaux before, and the ease of immersion is enhanced.
The small towns also have a medieval feel, with half-timbered houses, churches and cobbled streets.
Sarlat and Bergerac are two great places to visit.
If you're familiar with Edmond Rostand's play Cyrano de Bergerac, there's a statue of the character in town, complete with highlighted nose!

I was talking about gastronomy, but it also goes hand in hand with the region's excellent wines.
I'm a big fan of sweet white wines, which go perfectly with foie gras, and I like Monbazillac, which is in the limelight here. You can visit the chateau, which dates back to the Renaissance, and of course do some tastings.
The restaurant was unfortunately closed.
(My preference for sweet white wines is Pacherenc du Vic-Bilh from nearby Gascony).

The photos were taken by me and my parents-in-law who accompanied us.

Le département de la Dordogne en France, se situe dans le Périgord, une région très recherchée par les touristes car on y a un sentiment d'authenticité et de douceur de vivre.

Les anglais le savent depuis longtemps et beaucoup se sont installés dans cette région qu'ils appellent le Dordogneshire.
Dans certains villages comme Eymet on entent presque plus parler anglais que français et le serveur de restaurant où nous nous sommes arrêtés était anglais, né ici de parents anglais installés dans la région.

La région a de nombreux atouts, dont le premier est surement la gastronomie, avec les oies et les canard qui sont déclinés en foies gras, magrets, confits accompagnés des légumes et fruits locaux.

Il y a aussi de nombreux sites moyenâgeux à visiter, tels que les chateau de Beynac ou l'abbaye de Cadouin.
Il faut noter que les chateaux sont meublés, ce qui apporte un plus à la visite, j'ai déjà visité des chateaux vides et la facilité d'immersion s'en ressent.
Les petites villes ont aussi des aspects moyenâgeux avec leurs maisons en colombages, les églises et les rues pavées.
Sarlat et Bergerac sont deux destinations à visiter.
Vous connaissez surement la pièce de théâtre d'Edmond Rostand, Cyrano de Bergerac, le personnage a une statue en ville, avec son nez mis en valeur !

Je parlais de gastronomie, mais cela va aussi avec de très bons vins de la région.
Je suis amateur de vins blanc liquoreux, ils s'accordent parfaitement avec le foie gras et j'aime bien le Monbazillac qui est à l'honneur ici, vous pouvez visiter le chateau qui est de l'époque renaissance et bien sûr faire des dégustations.
Le restaurant était malheureusement fermé.
(Je vous donne quand même ma préférence pour les vins blanc liquoreux, c'est le Pacherenc du Vic-Bilh d'une région proche, la Gascogne).

Les photos ont été prises par moi et mes beaux parents qui nous accompagnaient.

The food looks amazing and it makes me wonder how good it tastes like. The pictures all look great and they look amazingly vibrant.

Thank you, the food is excellent but a little difficult to digest, a nap is recommended 😋
