Its always worth while moving away from places which are filled with the regular tourists, limiting ourself to the city of lights-Paris, is a mistake most of us the make. A short distance from the main centre of attraction will take you to many places, which could turn out to be a beautiful experience.
Starting with the French countryside, I wanted to see how the rural ordinary people live, there life style etc. But after seeing much of the areas, I realised that in a Developed Nation, If I was trying to find the sort of poverty that exist in rural India, It is not to be. Having spent 16 years in Kerala, I suddenly realised, Kerala too is miles ahead in terms of Hygiene, cleanliness, standard of living etc. All this only due to the higher literacy rates.
A small village
Horse breeding farms
History stares at you in many locations,
Old mansions....
Forts
A brook, very much like in a Enid Blyton story
This is beautiful-an ancient water wheel, in working condition
