This considerable part of France is not a major tourist destination, but it is a great place to visit on your holiday if you're looking to visit somewhere quaint. Dinant in Brittany is a charming medieval town with a unique look. This is a must-see for history lovers and those seeking an authentic French environment.
With cobblestone streets, half-house houses and ancient castle walls, it feels like it's going back in time. A Tripadvisor visitor said, “What a wonderful historic centre. Lots of beautifully preserved timber buildings. Perfect for roaming and without traffic.
The town is located above the River Reims and offers breathtaking views and a picturesque atmosphere perfect for walking and viewing.
Dinan's vibrant market square, Place Dell Cordelier is bustling with local artisans, cafes and boutiques that capture the cozy atmosphere of a small town.
One must-see location is the Castle of Dinan, dating back to the 14th century, and the stunning Church of St. Malo, with beautiful stained glass windows.
You can climb 158 levels of Tour del Rogue for panoramic views of the town, or explore the quaint artisan shops as you wander through its narrow alleys.
One Tripadvisor visitor to La Tour De L'Horloge said:
“It is a tower that was over 500 years ago and still has a clock that works perfectly today. You can climb to the top of the tower, with panoramic views of this beautiful city.”
If you want to see the scenic surrounding nature, you can explore nearby forests and riverside walks.
Whether you're a history lover or a nature lover, just looking for a peaceful escape, Dinan offers a bit of it all.
