Burgundy Regional Centre and Cot d'Or Department. In the eleventh to fifteenth centuries, the capital of the Duke of Burgundy, the provincial French city from the sixteenth century. Two celebrities (Gusta Eifel and Jean-Philippe Ramo) held in Dijon for the first years of their lives, and then in Paris, they must have never been remembered. The third great son of Dijon is St. Bernard (1090-1153), founder of the order of the Nazis. It is for him that the Northern France owes a great number of monasteries and their subsequent development of vineyards.

The Dijon Centre (97 ha) was declared in 1984 as a protected historical territory. It is located inside a boulevard ring, which is precisely on the contour of the former medieval walls, a standard phenomenon for many French cities.

A mid-century table glazing can only be considered through the prism of Arduen-Mansar. In the sixteenth century, he updated the old German palace (XIV-XV Vv) in the central area of Dijon (Place de la Liberation). The classic column, the sculptures upstairs, the long building in the yard, which is fenced with a carriageway bar, and the junctured tower of Phillip Good Back, making Arduen-Mansar no effort. In fact, it's not just an architectural monument, but an administrative institution is a city rascal. But all the courtyards are not occupied by officials, leaving something for the Museum of Fine Arts and Historical Expo. The Museum's self-defense says, "The second after Louvre." It should be noted that this is what they say about themselves in several museums of larger cities in France. The paintings of Tiziana, Rubens, Mane, Mone and the Hugo Samben tree can either confirm or rebut the statement.

And there's still a greater interest in the rest of the ever-powerful burgundy court. Notice No. 1 is the Guardian Hall, with the tombs of the Duke of Phillip Smelhogo and Joanna of the Destroyal (the one who lived in the tower at the centre of Paris), No. 2 is the memorial gallery. The old-fashioned lovers here, of course, should remember "Jethro Tull" from 1975 "Minstrel In The Gallery." Gunshot, colorful Englishman Jana

Anderson is quite the place: the burgunds and the British were once brothers in arms. The tourists also go to the Duke. Its gigantic sizes are immediately remembranced by gravures with an open-and-round baron and duchess seams, in a very uncultivated manner of meat-dried with hands, without the help of canteens.

In Dijon, three places of worship, each of which asserts the right to cool. The first of all is the Church of Notre Dame (1250) behind the Duke Palace. There's no mention of a familiar French Notre Dame for years. It's very unstandard in the entrance, through a monumental ballust with three arches and two galleries of horizontal chemistry upstairs. There's something Venetian about all this. The church of Jacmar's hammer watch (1392, the Flemish from Kurtre) and the flüger. But all the tourists follow the guids are going to the left, to the small soy sculpture on the wall of the cathedral, and touching it with their hands. The poor nightbird has already been hard on millions of touches. What does that mean? Why is there a owl? Why touch her? There's only a clear answer to the last question: "For the dreams to come!" And the causes of the sofa are hidden behind the dust of centuries. It's either an architect or a sculptor. It was even hypothesis that the owl is a Jewish symbol.

The Saint-Michel base (1529) is located east of the central square and is a supersite on its own. It's a monumentality that involves treachery. In its true size, the baselic is magnificent, but if it is reduced, then two symmetrical white towers with round domes could have formed a beautiful box. The Church of St. Etienne (launched in the eleventh century and has been rebuilt since then) is near the basement, where a sculptor museum can be visited by François Ryud.

The Saint-Benin Cafederal Collection (1280-1310), located west of the central square, is considered to be the main temple of Dijon. But compared to the two churches described above, it is less pronounced. Although his two pyramids were stolen by a traditional burgundy turtle. The sharp spike was built

The nineteenth century underlines the banality of the building. But there's an archaeological museum next to the garden: the galle burial barelefs, the bronze statue of the goddess of Sen, the brass of Christ of Klaus Schlüter's work. The Saint-Jean Church, which is near the assembly, is used for the theatre.

Dijon's center walk is absolutely recommended. A few central blocks can make a great aesthetic pleasure. Apart from the collections already considered and the baselic, there's a lot more interesting. Three main walks from the area of Liberación: north, south and west.

To the north, the renaissance area. The house of Vogyo (l'Hotel de Vogue, 1614) is a classic model of the burgund municipal architecture, thanks to its turtle roof. The house with cariatis (1601; Shod-ronri Street, 28) and Mayar (1561) has been most ludicroused by the sculptor Hugo Samben, saturating the building with various phytiflus: Atlantas, lion heads, fruit girlands, etc. The delicate pedestrian street of Verrerie is filled with old houses. In the same area, the market is very typical of the Crimean Building of the nineteenth century for France. A little far away is the Sen-Bernard area. A walk can be completed around the recently built Auditorium concert hall (1998).

Freedom Street (rue de la Liberte), leading from the central area to the west by the Dijon Arbat. There's a lot of stores, cafes and restaurants. François Ryuda (Place Francois Rude), through which the street passes, is the most popular party place. There's stone old buildings scattered with stripy red foams, and in the middle of the square, there's a fountain fountain with a vineyard symbol prospering in Burgundy's fault. The Darcy area (Place Darcy) is on a boulevard ring in which the street of Liberty is located, the most vibrant place of the city, restaurants, squares and the triumph of the sixteenth century. It's a little bit of a railway station that stiffly divides the city into an old and new part.

If we go from the central area to the south, perhaps one place deserves close attention. This building with a green dome is an ex-tank monastery (1709). There are two museums: burgundy life (reconstruction of dwellings, suits, furniture, etc.) and religious arts (a statue of interest)

St. The 18th century, broken and then rebuilt with gamma radiation. Vilson area (Place Wilson) on the bulb ring - the centre of the geron, with fountains and Colombiere Park.

Of the new tourist areas, the most preferable is the western margin. Here, as strange as it sounds, the first thing to do is visit a mental hospital. Because it is in the territory of the Shangol Monastery (Chartreuse de Champmol) founded in 1383 by the Duke Philippe Smel. There was a burgundary ruler who ordered a long life during the Great French Revolution. But the so-called Moses Cold is a very impressive sculpture group of Klaus Sluter. Here's her in the hospital courtyard and I'm gonna need to see.

In the same area, it is possible to rest in green areas. First, it's a botanical garden (3,500 copies from all continents, the Natural History Museum: a lot of birds, butter collection). Second, the Komb-a-la-Serpent Park, one of the largest in France, is in a spark between the hills. Thirdly, Lake Kir (Lac Kir) was artificially created in 1964 to create an adequate ecological environment in a multi-ethnic region. Smile about the word "kirr" is quite justified, by the way. The Russian slang chivalry probably came from here, because in Dijona at the Perno factory, there's a vibe of white wine and black liquor. Besides, the city's famous for the faint licker Cassie.

Dijon is the home of several food brands known outside France. First of all, it's a mustard. The special taste of the classic Djona peas (it's softer than the Russian eyebrows) is that the seeds are mixed with the sour juice of underweight grapes. There's a company named Edmond Fallo, and there's even a Music Museum (this is close to the Chancellor Monastery). The Museum is free of charge and provides detailed production technology and brand history, and allows for the tasting of the mustard. A little less famous, but also very good, local ginger bread (the accent of our Borodin with the Tmin) and pork.

The capital of Burgundy ' s industry is concentrated in

In the eastern regions (Peo launch, Lanwen sewing factory). There is a university (based in 1722, 25,000 students). The construction of the end of the twentieth century at times resembles a similar Moscow, a beautiful set of new houses along the Burgunda Canal, in the southern part of the city. Toison d'Or's park in the north of the city is another green zone named after the Order of the Golden Run, which was formed, by the way, in Dijon in 1429. There are several festivals in Dijon each year, of which the Music Summer (Open Air Class) and the International Gastronomical Fair (in early November) can be distinguished.


Areas:

KLO-UWO (Clos Vougeot) 20 km south of Dijon
The famous burgund vineyards begin almost immediately after leaving Dijoon in a south direction. It's a narrow strip of land, no more than 2 km wide, located on the southern slopes of the Or hills (the highest point is 636 m). Steps to the right, step to the left, and the properties of the wine, his bouquet, his post-coustics and other additives will be lost. Checked by monks for centuries. Clo-Vevo is a cult vineyard, a centre of the wine area of Côte d’Ivoire. Visually, it's a modest castle, without architectural searches surrounded by vineyards. He is the residence of the so-called fraternity of vin knights.

And the beginning of the burgund wine is very close. Syto (Abbaue de Citeaux) was founded in 1112 by St. Bernard and his thirty studs. This was the first step by Ber-Nara in creating a new powerful structure and giving the Catholic Church a proper dynamism, which was very relevant in the context of the weakening of the Benedectians. Now, Syto has about as many monks as in Bernard (50 people). And the nearby vineyards, to the Great French Revolution of Abbeys, continue to provide the world-famous red wines: Jevrey-Chambertin♪ Bon-Pomane (Vosne-Romanee)♪ Shambol-Muzini (Chambole-Musigny)♪ Nyui-Sen-Jorges (Nuits-Saint-Georges)♪

The main burgund event, the traditional annual wine fair of Trua Gloriez, takes place every year in the third weekend of November in three stages in three different places, and Clo-Vuso opens a fair on Saturday afternoon.
