| View over the Dordogne from outside the walls of Domme |
The
hilltop town of Domme is located on
the Dordogne River in Aquitaine, France.
It retains its original fortifications which is unusual. The town centre is a little bit gift shoppy
but when you stand outside the walls and look down to the Dordogne you will be
seeing one of the most spectacular views in France.

| Porte des Tours, Domme |
One
of the towers at the entrance to the town (Porte des Tours) was used as a prison
in the early 1300's and you can still see the crucifixes engraved on the
walls by the Knights Templar who were
imprisoned there by the King.
A
must visit place in France.
The photographs are well done and it does make you want to visit France - if not for that, the food perhaps? I love your blog Carole. Glad we met. Your friend from the states, Patty.
