Nantes, France

Nantes France

Comfortable and appealing, Nantes shares many similarities with Paris: Broad boulevards delineate the borders between administrative districts and lavish architecture bears witness to a prosperous history. The historical capital of the Dukes of Brittany and France's leading port in the 18th century, is now an artistic city, a significant innovative industrial hub, and a vibrant university town. Nantes’ St-Pierre Cathedral is a testament to the grand construction typically found only in large and affluent cities. Its Gothic vaults rise higher than the arches of Notre-Dame. Nearby, the city’s fortified 15th-century castle is encircled by a lush green moat and a verdant strip of lawn. The castle houses two of the city’s premier museums: The Musée des Arts Populaires Régionaux, which offers a glimpse into traditional Breton culture, and the Musée des Salorges, a fascinating maritime museum. Surrounding the castle are numerous elegant buildings from the 18th century, a time of significant wealth and growth for the city. Savor the city’s specialties, such as the Muscadet, a local white wine, or a delicate fish dish served with a butter sauce, while taking in the view of the Loire River at one of the city’s cozy and fashionable bars. Or unwind in the city’s abundant green spaces. Nantes is one of the most eco-friendly cities in the world, earning it the European Green Capital award in 2013.
