France: Best Places to Visit
Alsace Lorraine

House along canal in scenic Colmar

Colmar
A delightful stop in Alsace, Colmar's scenic canals are draped with colorful houses that are picture-postcard perfect. Good food and good times abound. Stop at a cafe along the canal for a drink or ry the Choucroute Garni (sauerkraut, sausage and pork) for a regional taste treat.

Be sure to visit the Musee Unterlinden to view some wonderful art from the Middle Ages as well as the famous Issenheim Alterpiece by Matthis Grunewald.
