This is the land of good living, gastronomy, the soothing colors of the countryside, and lively markets (Castres on Saturdays and especially the unmissable Réalmont market on Wednesday mornings). The more adventurous can get there on foot or by bike via the greenway.
Ideally located in the center of the Tarn region, you'll discover Castres (Banks of the Agout, Goya Museum) and Albi, whose historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. There, you'll find the Toulouse-Lautrec Museum housed in the Palais de la Berbie, and the largest red brick cathedral in Europe, the Sainte-Cécile Cathedral, which dates back to the 13th century.
