"It's like being in the countryside... 3 bucolic villages not to be missed, just 1 hour from Paris

You don't have to travel to Italy to visit the Serenissima Venice. In France, too, you can take a stroll along the canals and enjoy a moment suspended by the water: all you have to do is go to Chevreuse, less than 50 kilometres from Paris. A godsend for Parisians looking for a change of scenery without having to travel very far! Once there, the "promenade des petits ponts" offers a bucolic and enchanting way to explore the village.

A stroll through Auvers-sur-Oise is like strolling through a painting by a master, and no less a master: Vincent Van Gogh! The painter fell under the spell of this village in the Ile-de-France region, settled here and never stopped depicting it in his works.

As a result, the church at Auvers-sur-Oise became world-famous thanks to his eponymous painting. The artist also painted the village hall, the streets and his flat.

Half-timbered houses, stone ramparts and medieval architecture promise a complete change of scenery, and a real trip back in time. Welcome to medieval times! More than just an aesthetic attraction, the village's monuments have earned it a place on UNESCO's World Heritage List.
