Toulouse Southern France
Welcome to southern France, where we invite you to discover some of the highlights of Toulouse and of many Southern other places.
|
|
In our region, nature can be beautiful and majestuous, tormented or peaceful.
The monuments, churches, abbeys, castles and palaces built by our ancestors to protect themselves or to pay tribute to their faith are in tune with natural beauty.

Toulouse, a rich and beautiful city, is famous
for its aeronautical ans space achievements,
its university founded in 1229, its laboratories and research centres.
|
 |
|
This city owes its name "Ville Rose" to the colour of the bricks covering the walls, which glitter under the blazing sun.
It combines a strong living spirit with a brilliant past and can unveil the gist of its beauties while jealously hiding less familiar treasures.

Toulouse is constantly building the future but is
also a real heaven for the strolling passer-by
who just wants to muse in a cloister or on a
terrace outside a cafe or restaurant till very
late at night. Toulouse also lives to the sound
of rhythm and music, with a subtle mix of
Italian and Spanish influences .
