Why Carcassonne Felt Like a Fantasy Novel 🇫🇷 | France Travel Vlog

Join me on a journey from Toulouse to Carcassonne, one of the most spectacular medieval cities in Europe. In this travel vlog, I explore the lively streets of La Bastide Saint-Louis before crossing into the legendary fortified city of Carcassonne. Massive ramparts, ancient gates, stone towers, and centuries of history make this place feel like it belongs in a fantasy novel. Walking through the fortress, I couldn't help imagining knights, kings, dragons, and medieval life behind these walls. Carcassonne was one of the biggest surprises of my trip through southern France. 📍 Locations featured: La Bastide Saint-Louis Place Carnot Square Gambetta La Cité Médiévale Pont Vieux & Rue Trivalle Porte Narbonnaise Inside the Medieval City Château Comtal Porte d’Aude Basilique Saint-Nazaire If you enjoy slow travel, walking tours, castles, and discovering hidden gems in Europe, consider subscribing for future adventures. 📌TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Departure from Toulouse 1:04 Arriving in Carcassonne 1:43 La Bastide Saint-Louis 2:14 Place Carnot 3:14 Rue de Verdun 4:12 Square Gambetta 4:45 First View of La Cité Médiévale 5:23 Pont Vieux & Rue Trivalle 7:33 Porte Narbonnaise 9:31 Inside the Medieval City 10:50 Château de la Cité 11:14 Château Comtal 13:39 Église Saint-Gimer 14:38 Porte d'Aude 15:53 Basilique Saint-Nazaire 16:08 Final Thoughts #Carcassonne #FranceTravel #TravelVlog #MedievalCity #Castle #Occitanie #SouthOfFrance #SlowTravel
