Vacances en Dordogne - Day 3 (Part 2)


After we'd visited the Hanging Gardens of Marqueyssac we drove even further up the mountain to the village of Domme.

Domme is a medieval bastide built high up and surrounded by a wall to protect the people who lived there. There used to be a lot of fighting in this region of France, which is also why there are so many castles.




Now Domme is a lovely place to sit and have a drink overlooking the countryside.
