The
south French Roussillon
lies directly waterfront among
the Pyrenees and the Corbières.
This region is one of the most
sunshiny ones in Europe.
Because of the very fruitful climate
of the Mediterranean you can enjoy
a very rank vegetation there.
A lot of wine and olives are grown.
Thus numerous wine-tastings are
offered in the region which are
popular and really excellent.
The Romanesque architecture in
France originated from the Roussillon.
You can view a lot of amazing
buildings. There are many convents,
e.g. Saint Michel de Cuxa, Saint
Martin du Canigou and Serrabonne.
