a league. play. play. now astronomy architecture history and art these are some of the elements that most people take into consideration when choose. and then next travel destination and the place that we're about to visit has them all the city of then in france is the capital of the region of brittany located in the northwest of the country and the old town boasts countless historical landmarks such as fifteenth century half timbered buildings and the song cathedral at the same time it's a young vibrant city with a lot of student population let's see how the two combine. then a city with over two thousand years of history its many architectural gems include the former city gates which open up into the historic city center.

five hundred year old half timbered houses now service cafes cobbs nightclubs and restaurants. the top century roman catholic cathedral is one of ren's landmarks the site dates back to the sixth century father ben not old today has been in charge here since two thousand and five. i think i just got phaedra was constructed in place of a roman temple at first it was a gothic cathedral but it had to be torn down because it became unstable reconstruction on this cathedral began in seventeen eighteen french artist is responsible for the modern elements of the alter. the city's fine examples of renaissance and neo classical architecture include city

hall the opera which stands just opposite and parliament. a guided tour can help better understand their rich history. i don't need we are standing in front of brittany's parliament this building was the seat of parliament from six hundred fifty five the middle of the seventeenth century it was set up in the very heart of brittany's capital to represent the french kings authority. in seven hundred twenty a fire raised in rents for almost a week destroying large parts of the city including this dissembling hall. the residence of rand are bilingual speaking both french and an ancient celtic language . as you. see the sign is written in of course french and just below in the book a tall version the historical language of the region this language with its celtic origins is still very relevant throughout the region. don't tell me here.

another gem in it is it's a fine arts museum located on the glen river. pier visitors will find an extensive collection of european paintings from seventeenth century religious allegory to modern works. out of it it was a fine arts museum is now in a bubble for its collection of european paintings from the seventeenth century we have three big names including rubens tiger lion and leopard greatest work to receive and we have all the great pieces such as the famous painting from martin from him scare st luc painting the burj of europe with on sunday going to give a talk. and a visit to rand would not be complete without cups or god let the region special to fix every cent and then the old part of town attracts both tourists and locals. off to a low fall as the restaurants crept expert and easily whips up one of the

a dozen variations on offer. as i don't know i'm going to make a mushroom go at. first you take the batter for the connecticut which consists of buckwheat if. you take one ladle and put it on the griddle and then you turn it to good use i want to tell me that. they want it with a fried egg on top you have a mushroom go left in your. a mix of medieval and modern young and old a city that truly reflects the diversity of britain. by the looks of it certainly a place to put on your bucket list the next time you're in fronts now there's

plenty of diversity in french cooking but now we're going to get to know a staple of the country's calorie culture. it's a traditional dish of chicken braised with lots of red wine the original version is from the burgundy region so we went there to see how the locals put it together. to this day the rooster is still france's unofficial national symbol. it decorates tables and proudly sits on rooftops and if the rooster itself lands up in the cooking pot you can be sure cocoa ban is on the menu the dish in which chicken is raised in wine is a classic of french cuisine the book of us it is obvious. tastes of tradition family and warmth us all but i think every culture has a dish that warms your heart to ignore it was a little slower and one of the best places to try an authentic version of this

world famous dish is at. the restaurant lies on the outskirts of being nice in burgundy the region where coco found was created. here at frederick mina she and expert on chicken lets us look over his shoulder. at the double series with i learned the most coarser secrets but i'm not telling you what it is a no no cooking is all about sharing that consumes and. to prepare and classical co-found you need to dismember an entire chicken. then add chopped onion small carrots garlic and a bundle of herbs but first fries some fatty bacon in a roasting pan with. the piece of the bird to be salted individually and then placed in the pan with the bacon fat. then comes the

second main ingredient wine. through so you can make great food without great ingredients he's going to want but he's there to serve the ingredients and not vice versa and the order in the out. of the shuttle them. in a vineyard in burgundy they feel the same way here just outside to join only the finest pino in wa is aged in these oak barrels cooking wine is a foreign concept in french cuisine here chefs say only a great red wine makes for a great sauce. and the regional wine comes from is important as well. who can email you when you're cooking a recipe from a burgundy you must use a wine from the region to give the dish that typical character there are many variations on this recipe using a variety of wives club along with at the baker v.p.

most of all but you can't make a couple in you know with the wine from the lawn valley it would be a coke over but not one from burgundy not go maybe but i cook or what. unfettered aikman is a gives us on the other tip before during the red wine over the first heat the wine to the boiling point and from day it builds up warm it burns away the acidity and the alcohol it has to do with the. legend has it that cocoa van was popularized in paris in the late sixteenth century by henry the fourth the french king is credited with giving common folk a chicken in every pot. historian loike began to see explains. levey. the essence of the story is that a good king emery because that's the image the french have a few thought it wanted only the best for his subjects from surabaya was pretty

that it suited eating this fine dish with their families every sunday the ball put out of a cure for you today. whether the legend is true or not many hands and roosters have wound up in french cooking pots over the centuries. and in henry's day they live. eight this friday in particular the flesh a very old breed of chicken that i don't eat man as a raises at his organic farm when it is a new move can still come in and prove you aren't you have older animals that are two or maybe six years old or even more than the woman herself and any easy way to tenderize i mean to have such an old bird is to cook it long and slow. and one is perfect for that oh well. so confound went from being a humble rustic dish to that and suso french cuisine. the

simplicity of its recipe and its name have made it more world famous. very good once again the gaelic rooster has done its country proud. now we're venturing up high into the mountains to the mall blong the white mountain some call it the highest peak in europe although that's subject to some debate to the higher peaks in russia and georgia but what's certain is that it probably stands at four thousand eight hundred ten meters and the alpine region between france and italy it was first climbed in seventeen eighty six pioneering in the region but before that you're much reporter meghan lee traveled that to learn more about the mountains history. lungs along the highest mountain. stood here since the beginning of time located in charmingly france it is a premier winter destination for tourists all over the world.

spanning that sudan has lived in charmine for over thirty years as an official guy she understands very well what drives tourists to this region. the whole valley shines with these mountains the mountains together with montblanc are amazing that's the attraction here. but once upon a time people thought the mountains were full of ghosts and dragons and so on. until everyone was afraid of what was up there. it was said sherman he was located in the bad mountains then in the middle of the eighteenth century to englishman came from geneva and heard all this talk about chamonix and decided to see the eerie valley for themselves. said this is the high and. the first actual mound. in years were crystal hunters who distracted courts from the mountains of shawnee it was then shipped off to geneva even made its way to the halls of versailles harmony's crystal museum visitors can get an idea of the

minerals extracted from long and its neighboring peaks. tendencies for families that imagine sherman he was a very small simple village people had a simple life and were poor house before that and then they found out without having to climb too high up the mountain that with these rockers tools they could possibly sell them in geneva and make some money and then have a better life. and be said. that pioneering spirit has certainly paid off for sure many tourists now flock to the village to travel with the cable car to reach a height of thirty eight hundred meters above sea level. even with the most modern technology and safety measures in place the ride is not for the faint of heart. but once of the top of the mystique of month long becomes very clear during visitors can dangle over the mountains in a glass box and on
