The rules for visiting Airbus are very strict. You must first make a reservation on the Airbus Visit website (even family members of workers can only go through this route), register your ID card for EU residents, and register your passport for foreigners. Cameras must be left at the reception desk, mobile phones are prohibited, and you must wear a badge with the word Visiteur when visiting.
Opening hours: Monday to Saturday

[Toulouse] Among the big cities in France, there are not many beautiful ones, but this is one of them. This place feels very gentle and elegant, and the old city is very large, and the overall area is neither big nor small. It feels very livable, probably because I haven’t been affected by Haussmanization. I don’t like any cities that have been Haussmanized. They are too political, such as Paris, Lyon, and Montpellier.

It is an old church with a long history. Due to the lack of funds, the upper structure is built with cheap red bricks, which is quite similar to Sheshan in Shanghai. There are murals and oil paintings with a long history in the church, which are worth visiting.

In any case, this is a museum full of French romance.
The romance of the French lies in their wild imagination, not in love (that is Italian romance), and these exhibits assembled with mechanical principles, combined with the aging technology, give people a sense of the fun of the silent film era.
