A town full of medival castles

#myhiddengems Dordogne was a surprisingly refreshing stop during my visit to the south west of France. What makes it a hidden gem is the fact that it is not so well known compared to other part of France. And that adds to it's appeal. is full of medieval villages, castles, impressive churches, stunning landscapes, and more caves than any other region in France. Indeed, Dordogne is home to many prehistoric paintings, considered the finest examples in Europe. Dordogne also makes a brilliant case for family getaways as it has excellent food and wine, friendly locals, beautiful weather, and plenty of activities. Speaking of which, since it is built around the river. It offers a stunning landscape that is composed of lush forests, rolling hills and imposing cliffs. I arrived here from the Boardeux airport. The drive was almost two hours and happen to sign up for a hot balloon air tour. The best experience and way of truly appreciating the beauty of this place. The following day I had so many options in castles to pick from. Most that I visited were stunning.That and the medival village vibe was a great memory. Lastly and more importantly the food wasn't a let down. From Query lamb to walnut pies and roccadeur cheese. Dordogne has a rich cuisine history and offerings for those who love food!#myhiddengems #100waysoftravel #france #medival #familygetaway #singapore
