Carcassonne’s two walls (about 50 yards apart) and dozens of towers are floodlit every night of the year — and what a sight to behold. France’s Bastille Day, July 14, is celebrated with an enormous fireworks display deployed to appear as if the whole city were on fire. To walk the floodlit ramparts of old Carcassonne is truly a thrill of a lifetime.

The streets of la Cité are lined with years of history, except for this restaurant. During three different visits we took pictures of the beautiful entrance. (Wonder how we missed it the other time we visited!) No other part of la Cité has changed as much as this establishment.

Another view, another year.
