1001 Escapades: Talmont sur Gironde, Charente-Maritime, 17

15 km south of Royan, on a rocky promontory overlooking the Gironde estuary, Talmont has retained its original bastide layout, built in 1284 by Edward I of Aquitaine. Dominating the village, the magnificent Sainte-Radegonde church, a symbol of the Poitou-Charentes region, is still fortified by ramparts. In the village center, houses with white facades and blue shutters are revealed behind hollyhocks.
